One Common Interest: End Corporate Lobbyists

from there all these other issues can be raised, debated, and voted on based on our representative government weighted one vote per one citizen.

Corporate lobbyists serve the interests of perhaps 1 in 1,000 of us. with those numbers I can imagine an end to the practice. One issue, one focus nearly all of us will agree on that will open the door to all the other issues being negotiated with our common interest in the forefront. I think the next step in this process is for a single potent idea with broad support to emerge. agree? have another idea you think will do the job?

Yes I agree - no more campaign finance. The first demand! The rest will be met with less resistance and more reasonable debate.

that's it lyn123... we can all agree on it, there is a mechanism to enact it, and it unlocks so much of the obstructions to democratic representation.
