our politics?
I propose we focus all of our efforts on attacking the root cause of the problems with our Democracy, campaign contributions (bribes), Super PACs, Dark Money, Revolving Door, Lobbyists, TV News propaganda, and oligarchies! We fight the symptoms of this problem, the inability to solve environmental problems, education, women's rights, law enforcement over-reach and militarization, immigration, LGBT issues, Black Lives Matter, prosecutorial and judicial corruption, gun laws, opiod crisis, Wall Street...., instead of the problem it's-self.
On all the issues close to our hearts our corrupt politicians represent their Donors interests and not ours. Our nation cannot stand and is a tail spin due to this rigged system. The recent populism from both Party's is a result of growing recognition of just how much more corrupt our system of politics has become.
Not many wish to discuss this issue here, much less vow to fight for campaign finance reform. It will take us recruiting candidates that we are willing to give money to get and keep them in office to make these changes. With the rise of Donald Trump there has never been a better example of why we need to do this!
