ummm. corporate interests make legislation and congress passes it if they A. get paid to do so or B. vote to get votes for what they are getting paid to pass.
Paul has stated he would send all of them home with their last pay check and ask the States to hold new elections and go back to pre-1913 where they are chosen and paid by the State that they are suppose to represent and not the federal government or corporate interests.
They aren't going to cut off their gravy train. Someone will have to do it for them.
