This was apparently tweeted by (semi-famous?) Scottish comedian Frankie Boyle. The person who posted it on FB thought he was just some dude and felt the need to redact his name.

Oh, please. In case you've forgotten, you've bragged several times about how your own employer literally writes legislation for the politicians in its pocket.

ALEC (http://www.alec.org/) + Lobbyists =/= billionaire puppeteers.
Sorry, but Hugo Drax and other Bond villains don't really exist.

The rest of your comment is just you trying to justify your way of thinking by claiming everyone else shares it. You're not fooling anyone but yourself.

No, I truly believe it. You yourself can be bought, can be paid enough to betray everything you profess to believe in. You pretend to be an idealist, concealing your base nature.

Don't feel bad. Most everyone does.

Who do you think funds ALEC and the lobbyists?

The corporations as directed by the executives. And the corporations themselves get all that through paying attention to the shareholders and consumers. Market forces, right there!

Right. And many of those shareholders are billionaires.
