Unfortunately the US Supreme Court had some dabbling in it which opened up more problems. https://www.opensecrets.org/news/2018/08/the-legacy-of-mccain-feingold/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took on a minimalistic lifestyle in 2009. Sold off a lot of shit that was simply adding clutter. I use Amazon to buy supplements and a few other items that aren’t available locally. The last item I bought was a 15 pound mace. There was no one locally selling it. For I my biking supplies I go through my local guy. I buy a lot of second stuff stuff to refinish or fix.
