Our elections are have two parts: Voting and Money. While we still have one person, one vote, every citizen does not have an equal say. The amount of money, that comes from outside the district or state for our Congressional elections, is obscene. It is nothing but legalized corruption. Why do we let corporations and union interfere in our elections with their contributions? That's corruption! Democracy is defined as Government of, by and for the people. The constituents should be solely responsible for voting and contributions to their candidates.How do we know our government is corrupt? When Boeing's Political Action Committee donates to candidates of both parties, and gets Congress to remove the Federal Aviation Administration from certifying their new plane, the 737 Max. Boeing gets to certify their plane. Then over 340 people died, when two 737 Max planes crashed.Then the House of Representative Committee conducts an investigation, finding Boeing and the FAA responsible for plane crashes. It was Boeing and Congress that was responsible for the awful, tragic dead passengers.Why does the Federal Drug Administration allow 30 day prescriptions for drugs, that are addictive after 5 days? Is the creation of an opioid crisis that kills millions of Americans and ruins even more lives corruption?Why are Wall Street firms considered "Too big to fail" and not "Big enough to fail"? We had smaller firms that were not negligent, that could have stepped in to fill the void. Could the millions of dollars contributed to both parties have influenced Congress? Are there any convictions?How long have the politicians been incapable of regulating our political finance system?One hundred and ninety two years! Andrew Jackson and the Second US Bank.It's time we fix our government with the 28th Amendment! As Americans, we always fight for Democracy. I would like a chance to avoid the death and destruction of revolution. Hence the website, add28.net.The book, "The 28th Amendment" is a cautionary story of a very efficient, but deadly resolution to our crisis. It has humor to lessen the outrage we feel. The book moves at a rapid pace. The arguments in this book will be used by others to incite revolution. I am against Revolution and for the ratification of the 28th Amendment. For that I am truly sorry, but democracy will continue its refinements.
