Re: US Consumer Protection

And the root problem there is the ridiculous notion that campaign contributions are "free speech" and that corporations are people too. This could all be solved by only allowing registered voters to donate, and limit that to $1000/year. No more "legal" buying of politicians.

Of course it would never happen, but if it did then suddenly election campaigning would only last a few months due to lack of funds. I think that is something that most non-politicians could support.
