They can't/won't close them off most probably due to them all being in the corporations pockets in the form of all the campaign contributions (aka i suspect as "having the senators ear").Oddly enough that never used to be allowed.It needs to be outlawed again.Trump was voted in because of the bs you lot have to deal with.Unfortunately it seems trump is also part of the rotten system.Evidenced by the recent xmas bonus to corps in the form of a massive tax break.Which will more than likely be born by those that can least afford it (the poor)
