So you want your representatives to vote on serious issues without having any information or education? You like ignorance?
Are you suggesting that lobbyists are the best people to educate lawmakers on a subject?

You are rich. I’ll put anything I cook up against your shite for brains any say.
Your opinions are insipid. Your logic is flawed.
And you probably put hot dogs and tomatoes in your gumbo.
I hope that wasps fly into your rectum.

Pretty much describes a fr33manator post. Just generic observations and name calling. Never any substance.

Yeti began to take off in 2011 when sales hit $29 million, as word spread among the hardcore "hook and bullet" crowd. In 2014, that figure hit $147 million as the brand migrated into other segments, such as oil field and barbecue. Still, the brand had little recognition, even with outdoor enthusiasts.
In 2015, sales skyrocketed as Yeti became a gotta-have label. It was the payoff from years of grassroots marketing to fishermen and hunters

Yes
It's nothing but collective bargaining for industry or non profit groups.

And they're going to get a unbiased, neutral education from a lobbying group, amirite?
Lobbying groups for and against certain legislation will give information to lawmakers.
Do you support Unions? Defense Lawyers? Why do we need those things? Why can't we just let employers and juries educate themselves?

Some lobby groups are simple shake down artists.

SO are some unions.
Everything is on some continuum. Nothing is absolute. There are definitely some groups who give lobby a bad name.

Senator A goes to one of his staffers. "Hey, research this issue for me (both sides) and come back to me with a presentation.
Voila.

I am at a loss to see where people with bought and paid for bias are the ones that should educate lawmakers on a subject. I can't see the founders clapping over this one.

So you're relying on some semi educated staffer to gather information on delicate issues like defense contracts, engineering projects, foreign affairs, etc?
Where is the best sources of information for said staffer? Experts in the field? Like lobbyists?

Maybe they're embarrassed by their "base."

I was going to buy their 250 ice chest because I have a 30% off code. Now I’ll just wait for RTIC to make one.

Should I be able to contact my Senator or Congressman to talk about various issues, which I will naturally have my own bias about, and to try to convince them to vote a certain way?
