I just realized why even whatever-we-call-Democrats-these-days don’t want to get money out of politics. πŸ™‚

It’s because money serves as the lever through which they can foist their decisions upon us using commercials, media time, and advertising, our modern day propaganda machine. It’s not as I used to think naively because they fear that Republicans will still outspend them in some way.

If if we were to remove their ability to spend money on manipulating us then they would have to seize and maintain their power the old-fashioned way which is by offering us ideas and reasons to elect them.
