That's the whole point! The corporations have more control over our elected officials than the voters. Thanks to campaign contributions making it economically impossible for outsiders to ever even get on a ballot, we only get to vote on folks pre-chosen by their investors. The return on that investment is a politician who will strike down things like the public option because it would hurt their next campaign.
"How bad are some of those leading our country?"
I'd ask "Who's really leading our country? The voters or the corporations?"
