Is your plan to limit contributions to 100 dollars?
Thats fine. But the major problem is that almost all of what Congress does is in secret.
The real stuff goes on in private converstions with lobbyist. Not just contributions -- but jobs for family, for girl firends, real estate deals, ect.
Congressmen work for us supposedly. If so -- why can't we know what they are doing and saying on our behalf?
Have all communication with lobbyist be in public hearings or in writing.
