Dear Editor:

Corporations spend billions on lobbying our government in an effort to rig the system in their favor at the expense of their employees, customers and even their shareholders.

When citizens exercise their First Amendment right to petition their government to level the playing field so they can get affordable health care for their families, a better education for their children, or a fair and livable wage, that is as American as baseball and apple pie.

Anyone who equates this with socialism is drinking the wrong kind of Kool-Aid.
