DESCRIPTION:Democracy YES:  Corporate Rule NO\n \nFriday, January 21 is the one year 
 anniversary of the Supreme Court ruling which increased the ability of 
 corporations (even foreign ones) to influence elections with huge 
 unidentified donors paying enormous sums for television time and mailings 
 to secure votes for corporate-friendly candidates and laws.  And this fall, 
 these big national and international corporations did just that. Spending 
 exceeded spending on the previous mid-terms by 33%.  And outside groups 
 spent $80 million – five times what they spent in the last midterm 
 elections. 
 [http://advocate.nyc.gov/files/12-06-10CitizensUnitedReport.pdf.]\n\nLearn 
 about this serious threat to democratic government by being on the Pacific 
 Garden Mall (O'Neils) between 2 and 4 on Friday, January 21st to get 
 information, sign petitions and enjoy some street theater. We expect Miss 
 Democracy to make an appearance, in spite of her weakened and feeble 
 condition.  Join with the WILPF (Women's International League for Peace and 
 Freedom)  Rescue Democracy: Curb Corporations committee. Help return our 
 elections to honest expressions of democratic, one person = one vote 
 events.\n \n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2011/01/15/18669288.php
