Weston Florida Injury Attorney Discusses Ambulance Safety
July 25, 2013Florida Supreme Court Makes Influential Decision on Rear-end Collisions
July 25, 2013Depending upon your prospective of how our society functions, one can interpret the political goings on to be a dance of sorts for which special interests will take a stronger hold of your government and your lives.
Strictly as an opinion, each political party is someone identified with its own leanings to special interests in American society. In this writers opinion there is an enormous undercurrent of power that is controlled by the insurance and finance industries. And it is this writer’s opinion that all too often, those interests not only clash with, but can be in opposition to what is in the best interests of individuals’ protections and safety.
As a committed victims rights advocate, I am extremely concerned that the wrong special interests are not only in contradiction to a voter’s perceived party affiliation, but by choosing a political affiliation, they may be unintentionally aligning themselves with their ultimate enemy.
How often do we find people analyzing the net effect of their political choices based upon its overall impact on the true good of everyday society? Are the political parties fooling the voters into believing that they are truly looking after their own good?
Does the average voter truly buy into the stated story that the 2.6 billion dollars spent on advertising for this presidential campaign was so that one side or the other will be responsible for creating more jobs, lowering unemployment, the deficit; or is it so that the funded party will do the behind the scenes beckoning of the special interest lobbyists?
