" ... Congress must heed the will of the people. The astute reader may rightly wonder, 'But didn't you just say the people were busy?' Touche. This minor glitch in our representative government is rectified by the white knights of democracy--corporations. These altruistic entities hire lobbyists whose sole job is to insure, through persuasive argument and financial remuneration, that Congress never forgets the people's wishes. Especially the people's wishes for deregulation."
