I was pleasantly surprised last week hearing about Obama's decision that lobbying has been constraint. I already mentioned so about a year and a half ago through another place on the web I used to frequent more than I do now.
That was in a post about reducing poverty, since I am convinced that lobbying indeed does not make society a nice place to live in; makes us more poor, unless you are rich (yet not necessarily famous). See, lobbying allows all these big corporations influence on decision making which eventually affects us all, and that just is not ok. Big corporations should be tuned to democratical laws and not the other way around, where laws are tuned to the big corporations disregarding the demographic!
See, we elect our representatives to take a stance for us, the people, instead of for a "legal entity". But lobbying has the exact opposite goal and I can't believe it has not been outlawed earlier.
