The public alone can fund elections. Then, the currency of our elections used to decide who wins will be the ideas and policies of candidates, not moneyed interests.
Why is this important?
Who "owns" our elections and politicians? Those who pay for them. The power of the electorate today is controlled by special interest groups and the very rich. Only "we the people" should shown "own" elections. The public alone should fund elections. Then, the currency of elections used to decide who wins will be the ideas and policies of candidates, not dollars.
