First of course we need to wake up Americans who pay no attention to how we are being screwed. The call to arms that's been out there since the beginning of voting with little effect.
Then we need to hold politicians accountable and vote them out when they don't vote in the best interest of the people of this country. Instead of voting in favor of big corp's.

Until or unless everyone wakes up, nothing is going to change.
Big money can be defeated by more votes than money.

So how do we do that? Heck if I know. Many much smarter than I have tried, so suppose I am just wasting my breathe.

Vote to keep Government running? Heck no. A vote to make the rich richer and the poor poorer. Because many of the poor don't vote!

I'm going to be a total cynic now and say voting doesn't matter any more. Big money smooshes us.

BTW I believe there was something in there about how campaign contributions allowed was now upped ten-fold.

We can't compete.

The world already knows what it has, needs, and uses from day to day. Wall St is just economic parasites that wants everyone to think its important and has purpose. And most take it in hook, line, and sinker. Whoever ok,d taxpayer backing of their questionable fiascos should be jailed.

Do y'all remember that article I posted some months ago showing the lack of correlation between campaign funds and votes?
