General Electric [...] and Sprint Nextel [..] joined the exodus of companies from the American Legislative Exchange Council following the group’s support of voter-identification and self-defense laws.
Reason #1 that it's interesting? Well, didja ever try walking into the annual shareholders' meeting at GE and voting shares without actually HAVING those shares (or the proxies?) Try it sometime. See how that works for you. GE believes in voter ID for GE, but not for thee....
Reason #2?
"......allowed them to help write bills that [might be] enacted...."
In other words, GE and Sprint/Nextel would "help" legislators keep competitors out of the way.
So is this good news or bad news?
Ganster Corporation.

It is typical news in "a day in the life" of the corporatocracy.
Vote with your dollars. Do not patronize such the likes one believes are wrongful entities
GE makes crap anyways. They have always survived solely on name brand recognition and government cronyism.
I mean, have you ever owned a GE light bulb or a GE clock radio or, in the day, a GE transistor radio or any other GE consumer product?
Absolute mediocre crap.
Ann: proofread and edit your terrible "prose".
Jim: corporations are going concern legal entities, not people. No wonder you were fired as a banker. What did you do for 37 years...penny rolls?
San Torem: Apparently irony is dead in your mind. Perhaps you would have "gotten it" had I put quotes around what I wrote, but I made the assumption (incorrect in your case) that readers here were politically astute.

Problem is your wit...banal as your wingtips...and as bad as your and Annie's compositional skills.
