Maybe the more politically alert folk already are familiar with this site, but I just found it and thought I'd send it along. It does not appear to be party biased, but honestly I did not check it out that much. It'a not a problem of which I have been unaware and it made me irritated just reading a little so I stopped. http://www.opensecrets.org/

Hogs at the trough. As a Kid I lived near a mental hospoital that maintained a large farm including a giant hog barn. They fed the table leavings to the hogs from a large tanker. I'll never forget how frightened I was a a small child when I first viewed the mindless frenzy of squealing, snorting, pushing, biting that occured at the feeding trough when the slops were dumped. Even the hogs at adjoining pens were stimulated to similar behavior. I still have ths image when I read this kind of stuff. The hogs at wall street are similar. The creepy image I have for Wall Street is some footage I saw of a group of whomever gathered and grinning with greed while they performed the ritual ringing of a bell to open trading.

Please don't make a fool out of yourself and turn this into a partisian issue, it's not, it's a Human Issue, we're all like that, mas o minus, some turn that energy into good things for humankind others are hogs at the trough. Start you engines.
