It is depressing how many "protection" bills exclude political committees and related PACs.
That's because they're quasi-government entities or related, and above the fray.
- gt_ 8y ago> That’s because they’re quasi-government entities or related, and above the fray. No, they’re not. If anything, the distinction should be more clear for these entities than other private businesses who could at least be contracted by the government. Political campaigns are entirely private marketing arrangements. The extent to which they are “quasi-government” should be perfectly obvious in light of their intentions, which is to become elected in the future. Even if the candidate is serving in office, that office’s duties and the campaign they run are separate projects. There is no blurry line here.
- yspeak 8y agoOh my. Not correct. Participation in democracy is not quasi-governmental.
- r00fus 8y agoPACs are not quasi governmental by any means.
