We all try to do what we can to influence legislation - I do not have to report it all here and certainly not to you. I don't consider the article above 'bullshit' nor the journalist who wrote it trying to fill people's heads with it.

This is more or less a public forum for members to write their opinions. If this thread doesn't interest you, then don't read it.
