As I am sure most of you have heard, about $6
billion was said to have been spent on the 2012 presidential campaign.
I'm also sure this frustrates most Americans to tears. According to the Huffington Post, a majority
of that spending can be accredited to over 1 million presidential ads aired
over the course of 5 months. Many may be
thinking, "Hey! I could buy
858 million six-packs of Budweiser with that kind of money!”, and indeed you
could, research suggests. I’m sure many of
you are begging modern science and technology to rationalize this phenomenon, “WHY,
SIRI?!” you plead to your myriad of Apple products, “WHY DO THESE THINGS
HAPPEN?!” But Siri does not have the answer.
Luckily, I have a proposal that will satisfy the needs of both the politicians
who are becoming accustomed to this frivolous spending, as well as the confused,
weeping masses. A seemingly endless
amount of money can continue to be put toward any election; however, all
presidential elections will be funded solely by profits attained through bake
sales. Effective immediately.Thursday, November 8, 2012
