Forum Post: The One Issue That Will Return Washington to Health

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.

This is not an attack on capitalism. If corporate lobbyist money is taken out of the government, so too should go labor union money.

I think the next step in this process is for a single potent idea with broad support to emerge. Agree with ending corporate lobbyists? Post so here. have another idea you think will do the job? Post your idea and encourage others to post their agreement.

If one idea surfaces, it will eventually draw media coverage, people will eventually stop panning it as childish, consider the idea, and if it has broad appeal, it can create change.
