huge task just like healthcare or SS or whatever. through lobbyists and not changing the rules but the game itself...

it takes voting in enough politicians who want that change. enough leaders say no to these companies campaign donations and manipulation there wont be any left to support.

there will always be those that will take the money and run, pun intended. but if there is a movement and people see that this change is necessary to solve so many other problems, it will be the power of real democracy, which is in fact the first step and goal of campaign finance reform.

it's optimism up against an incredibly powerful entrenched system. we must convince companies and wealthy organizations it is in their best interest... but if true competition is what they believe, then get the politics out of the market and the money out of politics.

that's meritocracy.
