Getting ALL money out of politics should be voted on directly by Americans, not left up to the very people who benefit the most from the legalized bribery system we have now. The question should be put to voters on a national referendum, a simple yes or no vote: "Should all money be banned from politics?" Problem is, our thoroughly corrupted elected leaders would never allow such a referendum.
