I'm not sure if they have a PAC (couldn't find one, but didn't look hard), but tbh, I was giving d.g. the benefit of the doubt. I assumed that a company of that size does, as he implied, what most companies end up doing when they realize they could use the support of a few elected officials. > I'm sure almost every big business is guilty of the same thing, so it > seems pointless to point a finger at one specific company. Yes, you're right. Almost every big business is guilty of the same thing. I think the keyword here is 'guilty'. Of course, doing without, or paying more to patron one of the 'other' businesses, is absurd. -m _______________________________________________ Talk mailing list [email protected] http://seattlewireless.net/mailman/listinfo/talk
