Would have been nice if they had gone after citizens united, but...

Having a rotating cast of politicians who really want to do good thing and urge everyone else to do so but there’s just not enough interest is a feature of the set up designed to delude you into donating your precious time and thoughts while earnestly believing this is just how things work
