$30 per Vote?  You Get What You Pay For.

Apparently in this election over $4 billion will be spent to influence votes, that’s not counting ‘dark money‘ that isn’t tracked.  In 2012 fewer than 120 million people voted.

Supreme Court decisions enhance

The power of surreptitious finance

But cash calls the tunes

The justices are buffoons

If they don’t see the candidates dance.

Clean campaigns are a joke

Transparency has gone up in smoke

Though on each side

Donors may hide

The right wing’s addicted to Koch.

So we get the best representatives money can buy?  In a recent vote on a bill that would ensure that in some cases women would be paid at the same rate as men,  ALL Republican women voted against it.  Did they also agree to take a 20 to 30% cut in pay?  If not, why not?

Paying them less isn’t right

You’d think women would stand up and fight

But they all voted nay

On a law for equal pay

Republican Women Unite!
