    A total, complete ban on lobbying or any other cashing-in after public service must be instituted for anything in America to change.

        1,000% Correct!!! Everything in America right now is a sham. Both Democrats and Republicans are being played by the 1% who control our government.

        There’s a very short list. Only one thing on it. Get The Money Outta Politics. All bad policy & attendant corruption flow from that.

        The revolving door is codified in Citizens United v. FEC: corporations are persons and money is speech. Money not only talks, but it also pimps with swag!

        I agree. Now run that past your friend @morningmika and see if you are still welcome on the show. Or how about ex-PrezObama’s cabinet and advisors, most cashed in. Do you have the Moxy to critique them? By name?

        I don’t disagree. But the chances of that happening are approximately the same as the chances of the Dallas Cowboys winning the next 10 straight Super Bowls.

        Add term limits along@with cam pain finance reform. The Career politicians will never pass that law and put themselves out a job.

        Agree. And these people make millions *while in office*. That has to end completely.

        Good luck with that. We are talking about trillions of dollars at stake here.
