what about a movement to illegalize lobbying and remove corruption?

[โ€“] Chetzemoka@kbin.social 11 points 1 year ago

Lobbying is an important and necessary government function. The Americans with Disabilities Act is the greatest success of social lobbying in history.

Unlimited dark money corporate lobbying used to be illegal and needs to be illegal again. And we need to get the regulatory capture pipeline under control somehow. Being able to leave government agencies for lucrative positions at corporations you were supposed to be regulating is the biggest problem after unlimited dark money for campaigns.
