"...the end of the republic"

Benjamin Franklin uttered startling words nearly 200 years or so ago, that undoubtedly has come to fruition: "When the people find they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic."

Lobbying, special interest groups, campaign contributions, and social entitlement is getting out of hand.

Private prison companies drafted the Arizona immigration law: Prison Economics Help Drive Ariz. Immigration Law. Say what you will about the immigration law, but this type of lobbying has got me worried.
