Cool site. Great mission. Please consider discussing/exposing the relatively unreported but rather astounding explosion in lobbying firm profits and in starting lobbyist salaries (which say there were really fat times in the past and the high first year salaries ($140,000+) augur the same for the future). This explosion seems to mirror the Bush and Delay years of power. Democracy and 'one person one vote'? I guess it exists but lobbyists must believe that notion is only for those quaint things called elections. Everything else in Washington and federal goverment - access, responsiveness, you name it -is being sold to the highest, richest special interest bidder (witness Mr. Abramov and others). It is a chilling signal. My government has a price tag and no one seems to notice or report on government for sale. Gucci Gulch was the 80's term. Do we have a new 00's moniker for this political greed?
