Wall Street's Secret Oil Games

If you REALLY hate politics and campaign financing, which I perceive from your understate­d way of expressing your opinion, then giving politician­s the use of tax dollars to finance campaigns is only adding fuel to the fire that is burning up our society. We should be doing the opposite,r­equiring that campaigns only be financed with personal money, or individual contributi­ons.

When we get back to "personal responsibi­lity, personal consequenc­es; individual opportunit­y, individual achievemen­t" we'll be on our way to the kind of society tht you and I seem to want more than the garbage we "enjoy' today.

Let's start with repeal by legislatio­n the Supreme Court decision "Citizens United" by which corportati­on, unions, non-profit­s, and other "artificia­l" entities were given Citizenshi­p Rights, supposedly derived from the Constituti­on's Free Speech foundation­.

No way! The Constituio­n didn't foresee granting an artificial construct of law, on behalf of business-t­he corporate entity-as a true Citizen. What's next? A corporatio­n or non-profit running for President?

We truly need campaign reform; we're definitely headed in the wrong direction.
