Political advertising. BARF!! I can only imagine the tidal wave of political ads on TV (since I don't have a TV). All the ads to tell you just how bad the other guy is. There's a box on your tax form where you can allocate a couple of bucks for presidential campaigning. If that was the only money they could use it would be a terrific program, but they just add it to the millions given by their rich patrons. Our system has been broken and corrupted by greed.
