Is Lobbying Unconstitutional?
If it isn’t, it ought to be!
While you read this, keep in mind, that these people have found a way around the 4th branch of government. The one Woodrow Wilson called “The Administrative Branch.” They have their “thumb” on us, the people, but Lobbying and other schemes discussed here, have found a way around that merry-go-round. This chart and the whole story are in the post, “A Pictorial of What Was and Is Our Current “State” of Government.” Who gets listened to?

Tongue-in-cheek, this is intended to be a sardonic post because the more we dig into the “government” the more it stinks like a cemetery of war-shallow graves, that requires a high tolerance for the stench while looking where to put the flowers for the Constitution.
“Lobbyist — A Modern Pirate who looks for government legislative bodies, to hijack VOTES in the legislature by offering treasure to each one of them.”
“Hijack — To take control of enough VOTES for legislation favorable/unfavorable to the influencer or corporation in order to get what they want.”

“It” really is a “Political Hijacking” maneuver to ensure, by those who have “treasure,” to continue to increase and hoard their treasure, through “benign legislation” creating a “lawful” environment for them. Or, in the case of Soros, to single-handedly change a Constitutional-people-owned government to whatever ideology he wants to have by spending his “treasure” and putting it where “change” needs to happen, like, Texas, these days.
Investopedia says, “in 2019 alone, $3.47 billion on influencing political policy, representing the highest sum spend on lobbying since lobbying spend peaked in 2010.” Then it goes on to justify why lobbying is legal — because it is covered by the 1st Amendment, using the wording there, “to petition the government for redress of grievances.” Thus, “a right addressed in the Constitution.”
Wait, wait, wait, there is a “Lobbying Disclosure Act,” which ALSO protects lobbying, by “providing legality of political lobbying.” Do we (the Serfs) think the “lobbyists” “Lobbied” for this ACT? It PROTECTS BOTH parties for doing wrong. It says, the ACT EVEN allows “the public to evaluate any UNDUE INFLUENCES that may affect decision making by the government!” Yeah, we read about every lobbying effort made by lobbyists and WE are OKAY with that! Are WE really?
Read about “Undue Influence,” it defines the term (regarding Markets), and ends with the statement, “There is a pandemic of undue influence in the financial markets of the world. It can be as simple as leveraging information someone has on someone else in order to induce a sale or purchase, or it can be as complicated as forcing board members to vote a certain way.” SO, if we translate this to “political influence,” do we (Serfs) think is NOT the same?
For example, on April 15, 2016, the site “Priceonomics” published a wistful article titled “When Lobbying was Illegal.” “Wistful” because it states in its introduction, “Wouldn’t it be nice if lobbying were illegal?”
Is NOT illegal because according to Priceonomics, “American courts have ruled that lobbying is constitutionally protected free speech, and lawyers and laymen alike generally accept this.” Alex Mayyasi, the author of the article, does not specify “what Laws or what Courts,” rule this, however, there we have it, PROOF POSITIVE that NOBODY in government is looking out for the little guy.
The author goes on to say, “The same is true of more indirect lobbying, like the Citizens United Supreme Court ruling that allows businesses to spend unlimited sums of money on Super Pacs and advertisements for or against a candidate.”
Corporations not only have the money to spend, but they also lobby their employees to “donate” money to “Super Pacs” of their own. The bigger the corporation, the more money they pile in to “distribute” in the areas of the “corporate choice.”
On April 27, 1999, CNN posted, “Supreme Court rules Sun Diamond Growers of California did not violate federal law in Espy case.” The decision was that the growers did not violate federal law when they provided gifts to former Agriculture Secretary Michael Espy. It was a “unanimous opinion.” WHY? — the Court said, “there was no specific connection between the gifts given and any subsequent actions by Espy.” Right. According to SCOTUS, we have had to illegally spy on Espy to catch that “connection.” Can the LAW, get more ridiculous than that? Why “illegally?” It’s a paradox, before he gives the gift, we have no culpability. If there is no culpability, how do we get the “tap” to tape or film his actions?
It isn’t just Lobbying anymore, today, we have billionaires around the world that want to “actively influence” the outcome of elections. Throw a little light on the subject and you go down a rabbit hole, you may not come out for air, for days. These people are billionaires for a reason. They will never get caught with their hands on the till. They hire someone, who needs the money, like a “Lord” in England to do the dirty job for them. All above-board of course. Machines that have been used in elections already. Just Google “who owns the voting machines in America” if you want to start a dive and go spelunking.
Books have been written about this and nothing changes. The contradictions of this “law” have no end. Beginning with the fact that corporations are “legal people,” they get to dump millions to elect somebody that works for them into a seat in politics (like Soros) with NO Legal consequences, and they get to invade ALL of the citizens’ privacies they want and get away with it “legally” according to the (unconstitutional Agency)“FCC.” BUT, BUT, BUT, when they get sued, “The entity pays a fine, “ and that’s it. The Board of Directors does not go to jail, get fired, or pay any fines, they are “protected.”
The question for the Serf “voting vessel” is, “who is really responsible?” The entity (corporation) has no conscience, no reason for being but, to produce whatever people working there design and build. Does the punishment fit the crime?
So, those who can get it. “it” being an “election,” influence, design firmware contained in “voting machines” with obfuscated switches, or just Lobby for what they want, can talk long enough or plan long enough to get it, MONEY is not an obstacle.
This is what used to be called “Mafia Protection,” which today, apparently is “LEGAL,” it is foolproof and hermetically locked by no one else but SCOTUS! No wonder the mafia went underground. Now they just make a “corporation” — > Lobby, influence, or build a “loaded” machine — > LEGALLY!
Like a sardonic joke of the 60s said, “other than that Ms. Kennedy, how was Dallas?”
If all that garbage is NOT ILLEGAL, IT OUGHT TO BE !!!!!
Therefore, with the exception of the “majority vote,” WE ARE BACK TO THE GOVERNMENT DESIGNED WITH THE “ARTICLES OF THE CONFEDERACY!”
What Do We Serfs Do?
