I love the dedication of Annie Leonard and her team at The Story of Stuff. Here's another enlightening video!
So you're probably wondering how does this video relate to a Green blog? Easy, when corporations can funnel unlimited dollars to the candidates they want to get elected, Americans have less choice as "Joe Limited Funds" can't effectively compete with corporate backed "Joe UNlimited Funds".
The recent Supreme Court decision to grant corporations the same free speech abilities as individual Americans has in my opinion tipped the scales, giving corporations a louder voice than individual Americans. And since I don't usually feel corporations share the same values and interests I have, this scares me... and it should scare you too.
After you watch the video please let me know what you think.
Best of Health,
Susan
