 Rogue WolfAte Your Homework, And Framed The Dog join:2003-08-12 Troy, NY | It's all about the money. The easiest cure: Remove money from politics completely. Allow politicians to draw campaign funds only from public pools. Disallow any form of contributions from anyone. If you want to show your support for a politician, cast a vote! End result: No more bought politicians passing and voting on behalf of their biggest contributors instead of the people who voted for them to represent THEIR interests.
Well, we could also educate the voting public to look into the issues they care about instead of blindly trusting partisan politics, sound bites and flashy commercials... but I think I'd rather stay inside the realm of the possible here.  -- Four gods wait on a windowsill, Where once eight gods did war and will. And if the gods themselves may die, What does that say for you and I? |
