Healthy? No. But its as American as apple pie. Everything these days,in America is based on money.

The entire political process is based on money (fundraising determines whether you're even on the ballot or a debate or able to be on a ticket) and controlled by money as there is a direct correlation between media spend and campaign success.

The worst part is that the "media" is the one sector in our country that has the most to gain from chaos and they're the ones who for the most part, control the dialog and the direction and worse, the cost.

Frankly, I am more shocked by the fact that people dont understand that its all about money.
