Americans are going to have to dig deep. We’re going to have to atone in our hearts for allowing a political system so rife with corruption to sell out our people for the sake of corporate dollars. When we get the $ out of politics we’ll get the toxicity out of our national soul.

We won’t get big money out of politics unless we stop blaming the elected officials, the lobbyists, and the judges and instead look at the underlying causes. We are trying to continue relying on a constitution that was never meant to run a country of this size and complexity!

The two-party system is pure poison. Pass it on.

They do not care, as they never got education, they do not know the benefits. They even think education is evil.

There won't be much popular legislation to remove money from politics. I think that the best you can do is to keep running for public office and support other progressives doing the same thing, exactly what you're doing now. Until the right group has the votes, money will rule.

Those corporate dollars are why they’re there.

Tall order since the country has always been divided. It just wasn't so obvious before.

When you get racism white supremacy out of America, then this will work. As long as it exists nothing will work. It's a cancer to EVERYTHING. Politics Education Justice Health Economics Labor

150 million people voted for this corrupt system. It was free to vote. But they let those with the money tell them what to do. Atone? Seriously?

Yet the Republicans are the ones who keep voting for corporate greed over human need. They keep voting against their own interests.
