The Tillman Act and Campaign Finance Reform




As a student of law and history I found this interesting.

Following the presidential election of 1904, charges were made against the victor, Theodore Roosevelt, regarding his acceptance of corporate contributions to his campaign. In response, Roosevelt in his annual address to Congress in 1905 called for the prohibition of such contributions:
Quote
All contributions by corporations to any political committee or for any political purpose should be forbidden by law; directors should not be permitted to use stockholders' money for such purposes; and, moreover, a prohibition of this kind would be, as far as it went, an effective method of stopping the evils aimed at in corrupt practices acts. Not only should both the National and the several State Legislatures forbid any officer of a corporation from using the money of the corporation in or about any election, but they should also forbid such use of money in connection with any legislation save by the employment of counsel in public manner for distinctly legal services.
Roosevelt repeated his call in the report to Congress for 1906, saying "I again recommend a law prohibiting all corporations from contributing to the campaign expenses of any party. Such a bill has already passed one House of Congress. Let individuals contribute as they desire; but let us prohibit in effective fashion all corporations from making contributions for any political purpose, directly or indirectly."

Contents[edit]

In response to Roosevelt's call, Senator Benjamin Tillman of South Carolina sponsored the bill that became known as the Tillman Act. The bill passed the Senate on June 9, 1906. On June 17, 1906, The New York Times reported that "One 'great financial authority who is a Republican' gave assurance that 'he and all the financial men with whom I have talked have welcomed this legislation with very much the same emotions with which a serf would hail his liberation from a tyrannous autocrat'."[citation needed] The article further stated that if the bill passes the House, "it will not bring about the millennium, but will lessen a very mean and sordid practice of blackmail... the great number of corporations that have suffered extortion through weakness and cowardice will have their backbones stiffened, and parties will be put to it to fill their coffers by really voluntary contributions."
The Senate bill was subsequently amended to add a minimum fine provision and the possibility of a prison term for officers and directors. It was signed into law by President Roosevelt on January 26, 1907. The Act provided in full as follows:
Quote
An Act to prohibit corporations from making money contributions in connection with political elections. Be it enacted, that it shall be unlawful for any national bank, or any corporation organized by authority of any laws of Congress, to make a money contribution in connection with any election to any political office. It shall also be unlawful for any corporation whatever to make a money contribution in connection with any election at which Presidential and Vice-Presidential electors or a Representative in Congress is to be voted for or any election by any State legislature of a United States Senator. Every corporation which shall make any contribution in violation of the foregoing provisions shall be subject to a fine not exceeding five thousand dollars, and every officer or director of any corporation who shall consent to any contribution by the corporation in violation of the foregoing provisions shall upon conviction be punished by a fine of not exceeding one thousand and not less than two hundred and fifty dollars, or by imprisonment for a term of not more than one year, or both such fine and imprisonment in the discretion of the court.
The language of the Act provided for penalties but no actual enforcement method. No Federal Election Committee existed to enforce the provisions. There were no existing disclosure requirements for candidates accepting contributions, and so there was no effective way to enforce the new law. The Act applied to general elections, but not primary elections. In the South, the grip of the Democratic party was absolute, and so the primary election was the most important contested race. Further, a corporation could circumvent the law by directing its officers or directors to make personal contributions to a candidate, which were not prohibited, and then simply give them bonuses at year end to effectively reimburse them for those contributions. The Tillman Act was therefore simply a first step towards regulation of campaign finance. Additional steps would be taken by Congress in the disclosure provisions of the Publicity Act of 1910 (also known as the Federal Corrupt Practices Act), and the extension of the Tillman Act to primary elections in the 1911 amendments to the Tillman and Publicity Acts

Doctors Suck: Patients and Pharmaceutical Reps Respond



Unless you have been living under a rock for the past 30 years one immutable fact remains. American doctors are even bigger pieces of shit than ISIS. Here are some patients and pharmaceutical reps are saying:

Paul writes: Most of these bastards would shit on their mother for a dollar. Most got into medicine for the MONEY not for humanity. Are you surprised that they seek to be "paid" for the scripts they write?

Diane writes: Uhmm...you're just figuring this out...?

Bob writes: Actually, they shit on their patients and not their mothers. Many of my docs would put their mothers and family on my drug and only put their patients on generics.

The real devils are the HMOs and hospitals. Their formularies have nothing to do with saving lives and what's best for people. It is strictly all about the bottom dollar.

HMOs force doctors and patients to take off-label generics prior to getting on-label medications.

Hospitals will pull people off of their medication completely or replace it with an off-label drug or another drug in its class, regardless of efficacy or even safety. Hospitals will only stock one drug per class of medicine because they got it the cheapest.

Rhea a pharmaceutical sales rep writes: What about the specialists who hound you for free samples for themselves? An interventional cardiologist who makes millions of dollars per year, lives in a 10,000 square foot home, just brought out the Lamborghini out for the spring and has a condo in Dubai hounds you for Lipitor samples for himself has no freaken moral compass at all. The $4 copay card isn't good enough, they want FREE samples.

Diane writes: they don't miss a free lunch on the hospital either. I wonder if this is added into the cost of a hospital stay?

Karen a bulling clerk writes: One of my docs has a daughter who works three blocks away and every time there is a lunch in that office, an extra lunch is ordered for the daughter. She just sashays in, picks up her little Styrofoam box, thanks no one, and leaves. Actually, I'm surprised lunch is not ordered for her husband and his parents.


Tim writes:  I really hate ungrateful people. All she has to do is say thank you. But noooooo. These asshats think they are entitled! Paul is right. They ARE greedy bastards...who are raising greedy entitled bastards as kids. Physicians SUCK.

Rhea a pharmaceutical sales rep writes: I love bringing in lunch for all who need some really good food to make their day happier. I encourage spouses and sibs to attend. I really love it when they can bring in their pets. Everyone is so happy and I am the one who provided the happiness. I am so fulfilled in this career.

Tom a pharmaceutical sales rep writes: The Indian docs are the worst. Everytime I do a lunch, the wife and middle school aged kid show up and chow down. The neuro drives a new Mercedes.

Cal a pharma rep writes: Two weeks ago I brought in lunch to an office, Greek food, gyros, salad, etc., and one of the receptionists (two ton Tess) stuck her head in the break room and barked at me, "What is it?" When I replied it was Greek from the deli around the corner she said, "Oh.....yuck" And left. Sometimes the staff can be just as rude. They hire sociopaths.

Rhea a pharmaceutical sales rep writes: Yes, that is why I love watching those big fat fuckers eat the most unhealthy food I bring for them. Go ahead fatty, have another plate of unhealthy food, have a brownie and coke for desert and then go sit in your chair on the phone with pts all day and not burn off a single calorie. You are getting fatter by the second. Thanks for being rude, karma is a bitch sometimes. Eat on fatties.

Cal a pharma rep writes: My doc loves the double fried cheeseburgers before he does his pelvic exams.

Good News About Doctors

It turns out that male MDs kill themselves 70% more than other professionals and that female kill themselves 250% more than other professionals.

Click here for more on how and why doctors commit suicide.

Fat Bastardo's Op Ed:

The good news is that they are killing themselves at a rate much higher than the national average but those are the ones with a shred of a conscience left but at least they are dead and doing no harm.

Male doctors killed themselves at a rate 70 percent higher than other professionals; among female doctors, that rate ranged from 250 to 400 percent higher.

Cops Shot In Ferguson: False Flag?

Let's look at what we know to be true.

Jeffery Williams is alleged to have fired 3 shots from a .40 cal pistol at police from 125 yards away wounding one officer in the shoulder and the other in the face.

1. It is next to impossible to hit a human sized target with a pistol from 125 yards.

2. A .40 cal would do a lot of serious damage especially to the cop's face.

Here are the ballistics. By the time the .40 call bullet goes 125 yards if drops about 10". Its velocity is around 850 feet per second at 125 yards down range. Its energy is around 300 ft/pounds. By contrast a .22 long rifle at 125 yards fired from a rifle will be moving at around 550 feet per second and will deliver about 20 ft/pounds of energy. That is more than enough to penetrate a human skull. The 40, caliber round is a whopping 15 times more powerful at 125 yards than a .22 long rifle round.























Bottom line is that if the cop who was shot in the cheek bone was really shot in the cheek bone with a 180 grain .40 caliber bullet traveling at 850 feet per second he would be either dead or horribly disfigured. He would not have gone to the ER and released after an hour with a band aid and a lollipop. He would be seriously fucked up and you can bet your ass that the spin doctors at Ferguson PD and the whore media would be spreading his picture all over the news like the did with Darren Wilson's tiny red mark on his face from an alleged punch by slain teen Michael Brown.

3. Shooter left shell casings in the car for cops to find. Why?

4. Shooter may also have been the driver and the car was moving when the three shots were in rapid succession by a rank amateur. He did not have time to acquire and target between shots.

5. Shooter, Jeffrey Williams, is a 20 year old with no training. Even for an experienced and trained shooter hitting anyone on any part of their body at that distance with a hand gun even with a scope is damned near impossible. Pistols such as the .40 cal Glock are meant for close range defense,  around 25 feet. And Glocks are considered by many to be among the best handguns made for their reliability, ease of use and accuracy. They are the preferred weapon of law enforcement.

In the video below the expert shooter is firing a .40 cal and short range. Notice all the misses and this guy is a well practiced professional pistol shooter who can out shoot most cops and cops are damn good with their sidearms.


The guy in this video could not make the shot that the alleged shooter is alleged to have made.


This video shows the recoil of a 40 cal. Listen to what he shooter says at the end when describing the .40 caliber.

This sounds like a set up?


See how the media is complicit in Ferguson and other false flag events.

Look at the marks on this guy's head, face and neck. Do you think maybe this 20 year old man was roughed up by the cops? Also if this guy is a street thug as the press is saying why does he have an expensive gun and not some cheap throw away gun?  

Where are the photo of the wounded officers who spent about an hour in the ER and then released?

BIG UPDATE: JEFFERY WILLIAMS RECANTS! CLICK HERE

I knew this cop shooting thing was BULLSHIT and since I originally published this investigative report and OP the alleged shooter Jeffery Williams recants. I suggested that the cops beat the shit out of him and now he confirms that the cops beat the shit out of him.

This guy, Jerryl Christmas is the alleged shooter's lawyer. Here he is on Twitter. Click Here

Jerryl Christmas bills himself as being in government relations. It is the government who is prosecuting the shooter. Public relations people are almost always scumbags and he is listed as an activist. Does this joker look like someone who you would trust?
