Big money and influence behind ALEC

The opportunity for corporations to become co-authors of state laws legally through ALEC covers a wide range of issues from energy to taxes to agriculture. The price for participation is an ALEC membership fee of as much as $25,000 — and the few extra thousands to join one of the group’s legislative-writing task forces. Once the “model legislation” is complete, it’s up to ALEC’s legislator members to shepherd it into law.

“This is just another hidden way for corporations to buy their way into the legislative process,” said Bob Edgar, president of Common Cause, a Washington-based group that advocates for limits on money in politics.

The Nation devoted most of its August 1/8 issue to "ALEC Exposed," a collection of articles such as "Business Domination," with goals of restricting taxation, privatization of government functions, and crippling labor unions. Other topics: "Sabotaging Healthcare," "The Koch Connection," "Starving Public Schools," and "Rigging Elections."

And, if you leave the theater feeling like you're on musical-theater overload, a quick Google image search of Lea Michele and Diana Argon photos can help remind you that Glee's not all bad. It's ok - it's not like they're teenagers. Child-friendly?
