newtboysays...*doublepromote , I guess we know which candidate is going to get the harshest, best funded opposition come election time.
I only wish Julie Archer (the next speaker) had gone up and continued listing donations.
We can be certain those benefiting from the legal bribery system they set up will not be working against it, so there is no legal remedy. There isn't a federal ballot initiative we can start to force a finance reform law, and Trump would veto it anyway.
"Throw them all out of office" sounds nice, but isn't even possible in one election, much less likely at all. Even if it were, finding enough people willing to work for others and not their own interests is pretty hard when dump trucks of money are involved.
This is what citizens united was all about, legalizing bribery, and it clearly did exactly that.
Lobby your representatives to write an amendment limiting contributions to actual human beings, even only registered voters, with a clear, low limit (<$1000?), that might be a start....but that's also a non starter.

MrFisksays...*controversy
siftbotsays...Adding video to channels (Controversy) - requested by MrFisk.
RedSkysays...The corrupting power of money in politics seems to be a bipartisan issue. Why do you think there's a lack of unity and action from people of both left and right wing persuasions to push politicians to act?
How dare she list out who is getting paid off.
Remove her damn it.
Phoozsays...We need to coordinate something like that where once the first person gets kicked out the next is there to keep reading; get like 100 people there!
notarobotsays...It's a crying shame that this has so few views on youtube.
