Against SOPA, or Running the Congressional Blockade in the Digital Age

When it comes to politics, as well as other walks of life, the old adage is “follow the money.” Now, it’s a fact that politics is an expensive business on both sides of the pond. According to estimates based upon campaign spending in the Republican primaries, costs per voter have exceeded $100. It may well have been cheaper to just to buy their vote (if it was legal, of course).  President Obama is widely expected to fight a $1bn campaign for re-election. Now, enough of that sorry parade of figures. SOPA analysis after the jump.
