anything here for geodude ? <| sep |> Sorry to hear that . It can really tear a child apart hearing that they were a mistake . I just brush it off . <| sep |> The Division agents live in a world where carrying 62 backpacks inside another smaller backpack is totally normal yet more than 3 lock picks is too heavy . <| sep |> The biggest reason people do not register is because the title of lobbyist has such a negative connotation . If you are a former lawmaker or staffer who is aspiring to elected office , you will have an easier time getting elected as a business consultant or public relations strategist than as a former lobbyist . Look at all the mud that people slung at Rep . David Jolly when he ran . It would also be a big pain to determine who is a part of the shadow lobby and register every single one of those people . Many , many things influence lawmakers . I don ' t think you could go after the socalled shadow lobby even if you wanted to . A lot of it is hidden behind a veil of public relations and political advocacy . If you made every PR person get registered because they influence lawmakers , you are opening up a big can of worms . You would then have to decide if every private citizen demanding redress , or every reporter , would also need to get registered .
