This paper has started a fire storm in the furnishings industry that goes to the basic core of how our federal government works. Payoffs / planted witnesses / fake studies / how some industries can make our elected officials and other federal agencies look like cheap whores.

Welcome to despair and cynicism and the fetid corpse of the American Dream. 32 years of the Reagan Administration and the national motto of “Greed is Good” have kicked the stuffing out of US Democracy and we’ve been reduced to corporate serfs.

This would be more appropriate in General Questions, I think, so moving there.
