This idea that every politician is owned by big business should actually look at the makeup of the senate. Herb Kohl is worth 100's of millions. Ron Johnson,100's of millions. These men can't be bought. I know Ron Johnson. He is in the plastics business. He ran for senate because he was tired of the way things run in Washington.

Lastly,the president of the country has veto power over any bill. So I still believe that he indeed holds the power.
