So one the one side we have a bunch of people willing to... click a button on a web site. On the other we have companies willing to spend millions of dollars.

So one the one side we have a bunch of people willing to... click a button on a web site. On the other we have companies willing to spend millions of dollars. Hard to decide who we should be listening to.
- Retric 14y agoAssuming 100,000 signatures represents even 5,000 votes it's is not an obvious choice.
- flyinRyan 14y agoI think we have enough evidence at this point to conclude that simply spending lots of money will produce an outcome. There's no need to really worry about the small minority who will actually be clued in and care about the issue because they won't be enough to overcome everyone else who will simply do what the ads tell them to.
