26. Campaign Finance - Follow the money
Manage episode 312749556 series 3244374
The relationship between politics and money is no secret; but lately it seems like less like a relationship and more like a symbiosis. Campaign costs continue to skyrocket and our voices have become a reflection of the amount of money backing them than the ideas themselves. We’re so deep in this model thats it’s causing our elected officials to focus more on how they're going to finance their next campaign, rather than making good on the promises they made for their current term. The consequences of this seems obvious, but the solutions do not. So how do we break the campaign finance cycle?
