Completely agree with you, Rob. I think the money coursing threw our political system like a massive firehose permanently on is the biggest threat to democracy we have. I plan to write a lot about how we combat that in the years to come.
To re-center America as a Democracy you are right on target. Your history is powerful. But the challenge is to make voters rather than dollars the currency of our future. How do we overcome that obstacle. Sirota and the Lever have an amazing podcast series called “The Master Plan”. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/master-plan/id1723377799?i=1000671629530. People matter and Money with extreme concentrated wealth make our system unstable.
If you ask me: nothing could be an easier political issue to sell -- spread across the country like wild fire. I can't imagine why nobody is pushing regularly scheduled, union cert votes.
Thank you, James, good to hear from you.
