1. K&R!!! We do live in a Facist country! Unlimited $ to politicians, to one if he/she does what

they want, to his/her opponent if he/she does not do what they want! What could go wrong? They have everyone so partisan that people fail to look past it to see that these companies and rich individuals are above the law, and the laws are written for them. We no longer have Representative government, only the wealthy do. The wealthy give campaign checks on a regular basis (ever wonder why fundraising is a year round sport) so they can make sure the politician stays bought.
Publicly funded elections are the answer along with other campaign finance reforms. They will not relinquish power easily so it will take a massive uprising and a lot of new candidates committed to reform to make it happen. Will it happen, tough to say though there would have to be an event that gets Republican and Democrats to join together to fight the shadow government we are under now!
