I'm sick of reading the same damn complaint over and over and over again. I could take it -- I expected it -- when it was just reddit, but somehow the theoretically more level-headed Hacker News community has decided that it too needs to incessantly talk about lobbyists.

There might be some difficulties in getting that....
