Subverting Democracy

Think individual and corporate political contributes are tightly restricted?  Think again.   According to The Tyee, it's remarkably simple for any corporation, union or individual to funnel as much as $60,000 to his chosen party if it's done right.   And if it's not?   Don't worry.  Apparently enforcement is so weak as to be almost non-existent.   No wonder Cap'n Weasel wants to get rid of government funding of political parties.
