Fine, what's the plan?

1. Stop donations from corporations into political campaigns. Got any candidates willing to back this? Got any plan to deal with the numerous SCOTUS decisions equating monetary contributions as a method of free speech? Got any plan to craft legislation that prohibits corp. contributions while allowing corporate entities to be the campaign finance entity (unless of course you suggest that all contibutions be held privately by the candidates themselves in personal or private business bank accounts)?

2. Ummm .....

I don't profess to know all the answer JR, I just know the system is broken. My biggest problem I have is mixing business with politics. It's become a dangerous game that has led us down a dreadful path. I feel the same way about religion and politics. Neither one of those two things should influence the people it governs. Why? Because the nature of those two things will overtake what's good for the people and do what's best for their own self interest.
