The Money Party

The times they are a-changin’.

This post seems to be older than 15 years—a long time on the internet. It might be outdated.

From www.smirkingchimp.com:

It is not about Republicans versus Democrats. Right now, the Republicans do a better job taking money than the Democrats. But The Money Party is an equal opportunity employer. They have no permanent friends or enemies, just permanent interests. Democrats are as welcome as Republicans to this party.

Late at night, when I can’t get to sleep, I start thinking about ways that our country could be better. I think that elections would be better if all candidates had a government supplied, fixed campaign money pot. In order to run for a position, you’d have to get a certain amount of signatures. Yes, there are flaws with this system (mainly “non-affiliated” support groups), but I think it would be a good start.
