[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 855092, member: 927"] Seeing as there are limits to the amount that can go to a candidate, the chance of buying a vote is nil. The average contribution to a candidate is less than $7K. I assume that you are against ALL PAC's? Here is a note from the Teamsters: "With 1.4 million active members, Teamster members working together can be a powerful force for change. Because so much of what the Teamsters Union wants to accomplish politically costs money, a main focus of the Department of Field and Political Action is raising funds into the DRIVE PAC. The Teamsters DRIVE PAC is our main political fund that we use for advocating on behalf of all Teamster members to the U.S. Congress and to state legislative houses." They have a right to use the process and so does UPS. I contribute to the UPS PAC so that our public affairs people can "advocate on behalf of UPSers." Finally, did you know that the Teamsters give 98% to a single party? UPS is more evenly split with about 56% to one party. [/QUOTE]
