[congress] And Their Cronies Secure More Than

When You Think About A Presidential Candidate Spending All Of His Or Her Time Talking To That Tiny, Tiny Fraction Of Us Who Have The Capacity To Fund Political Elections, It's Obvious Why The Perspective Of Government Is Skewed Relative To What Most Americans Care About.

You And I Both Know That As Long As Our Representatives Are Held Hostage To Their Funders - And Their Funders Are Not All Of Us - Our System Will Not Work

For However Much The State May Gain By Not Having To Fund Roads On Its Own, Society Would Lose In Aggregate If The Open Commons Of Transportation Were Lost.

Creation Always Involves Building Upon Something Else. There Is No Art That Doesn't Reuse. And There Will Be Less Art If Every Reuse Is Taxed By The Appropriator.

A World Where Congressmen Spend 30 To 70 Percent Of Their Time Raising Money From A Tiny, Tiny Fraction Of The 1% Is A World Where That Tiny, Tiny Fraction Has Enormous Power. And It's That Inequality In Political Power That Enables This Corrupted System To Happen.
