Dark money has hijacked our Democracy &
if we love the idea of America with all its hopes and dreams, then we are mandated to Be INFORMED & TAKE ACTION.
In 2016 Jane Mayer wrote 'Dark Money'. In this book she talks about the take-over of our Democracy by enormously wealthy individuals & corporations that further expanded their political power after the Citizens United decision.
When David Koch lost his vice presidential bid in 1980, he realized that he didn’t have to hold office, he could just buy his politicians. “The 2010 midterm elections ushered in a political system that the Koch's spent 30 years plotting to bring about.” 100's of millions of dollars created ‘anti-government Koch clones’ financing an interlocking network of think tanks, academic programs and news media outlets that far exceeded their wildest dreams.
