So, around here those little campaign signs are cropping all over people's lawns and also in the medians and roadsides. The other day I saw one that said "God Bless the Corporations For Bringing Us All Our Candidates" and underneath it had the Adbusters "Corporate America Flag" in red, white and blue (link to a pic of the flag here: https://www.adbusters.org/content/corporate-america-flag). I thought it was so cool, I wanted to see if it had anything on it that would indicate who was putting these out, but the next time I drove by it was gone. I later drove by again and was able to find it nearby ripped out of the ground and piled with some trash, so I took it home. Even on the way home I got numerous comments from passers-by about what a great sign it is! I plan to "plant" it in my front yard tomorrow. I'm still really curious who put this up and whether there are others . . .

First thing that comes to mind is that the banking industry is significantly underrepresented on the flag...

Ben and Jerry of ice cream fame are promoting rubber stamps that you stamp on the back of paper currency. There is a choice of five messages but they all basically say, keep big money out of politics. Each bill is claimed to have 900 people who might look at the message. Somehow it is not deemed defacing government currency and is legal.
