Unless many US individual voters are willing, systematically, to NEVER VOTE FOR AN INCUMBENT POLITICIAN the system will never change; there is simply too much corporate money, too many lobbyists and all the major media is owned by giant corporations. The approach for not voting for an incumbent may sound contra intuitive, because it also means getting rid of favorite liberal politicians.
However, as long as ALL politicians KNOW they are bought and paid for going in none of them will really have a service attitude to the people at home: They will be buying into a PERPETUAL NEED TO SELL OFF MAJOR PORTIONS OF THEIR FUTURE VOTING DECISIONS. This is a common sense TERM LIMIT approach. 330 million people will have the option this Fall 2022. If we talk with our neighbors about what's good for our country, the idea might catch one.
Mr. Hartman's citation:
Today there are very few members of the House who aren’t multimillionaires and we have several senators worth hundreds of millions. As the Supreme Court tilted the political field toward the white, male, and rich, the party that most embraced the “money first” ethos — the GOP — has come to reflect that in its makeup and priorities.
Big money is the cancer that has been eating away at the foundations and structures of American politics ever since the Supreme Court blew up hundreds of good government laws designed to protect our democracy from rich predators.
And they are rich. While average Americans are carrying the full tax load necessary to support America, most billionaires in this country are paying around 3 percent in income taxes. Most large corporations not only pay nothing; they’ve figured out ways to get government to give them money every year
