I am against all foreign as well as domestic special interest groups using monetary incentives to influence our elected representatives, who are supposed to be working for us, the people who elected them. Take for example the pharmacutical giants. They are exerting extreme pressure on Bush and other government officials to ban the importation of prescription medicines from Canada. As a senior citizen, I have to take many expensive meds and if I did not have a Canadian source for them I could not afford them. But firms such as Pfizer are lobbying strongly to stop these imports, irrespective of the will of the majority. As I said before it's all about money, and it stinks. SOL ZELLER
