Thumbs up

This is so very true Greyson. The Supreme Court struck down the campaign finance reform attempts by saying it was ok to donate massive sums to candidates and parties making them beholden to them. If we want to end a good deal of this purchase-able.gov (aka corruption), this must be stopped. I am not anti-corporation. I am anti- disproportionate corporate influence in the political process.

1.Stop recognizing corporations as people..
2. Set up public financing for all campaigns. Do Not allow any donations.
3. Eliminate all non-office professional interaction between lobbyists and politicians.
4. Eliminate revolving door between the lobby and political offices by imposing timeframe restrictions on employment in the respective occupations.

These resolutions were passed in Chicago by more than a 90% vote at the People's General Assembly.
