That’s right kids! Members of congress were paid to vote for internet censorship, diminishing your free speech rights. Talk about whores prostituting themselves for the almighty dollar, and in return they take your speech rights. This, my misguided friends is the true definition of greed.
Oh, it’s both sides of the aisle, and every one of these political prostitutes should be voted out of office in November.
