> If lobbyists were influencing my municipality from afar on the basis of laws that I disagreed with Hah, they most certainly are! To such an extreme extent that I figure you'd probably reword this to something like "If I was aware of all the ways that lobbyists were influencing my municipality from afar". They are most certainly constantly and relentlessly influencing your municipality on every issue that is relevant to them. To those downvoting, if you tell me your municipality I will provide you with evidence of corporate lobbying influencing decisions of governance at the municipal level. https://www.govtech.com/archive/uber-encourages-voting-gets-... | ||
