These things were reality pre reformation

One thing you must understand it took a long time to build this hegemony, it is going to take a long time to tear it down

Brick by brick

To have Fascism as a flash in the pan movement is the short road to failure

No its not, its already coming down lol

I wouldn't say it's coming down but the foundations have been shattered

A few more pivotal events must occur for the masonry to start crackling and tumbling down

Again, it will not happen overnight

And to be fair I'm not an absolutist

Ok, how would you prevent Corporations from donating to candidates and congressman directly? Under our current system of course

Under our current system, it’s currently legal to donate to candidates as a corporation indirectly under Super PACs

So rid it?

What instead

The thing is, it’s hard to trust public opinion as doing a good job as it can drastically change over a week

Let’s say majority public opinion wants to go to War with Russia

Hypothetical

If the congressman realizes this is a shit idea and doesn’t support war with Russia

He is seen as unpopular and doesn’t get enough donations

This starved and dies

I agree they should be paid less but not cut off salary

Not 100% ppl have to disagree

A majority can disagree to the same effect

I can agree with that

Yes, a small subsidiary from the government of about 10-50k should be enough

10 is a little low

As who knows how public opinion might switch

Also @Fsypro, what limit from individuals do you propose should be for donations

The reason why I ask is wealthy individuals still exist and should they be limited

Or not

Not bad idea

One thing I have a small problem though

Actually a big problem

Is where the candidate is

An example is a conservative in a liberal district

Under your system, the politician has to appeal to the populous more

What if the values of the politician are against the people’s?

Do they get screwed

Due to lack of donations

So let’s establish common ground

The donation system should be a limit from 1000$ per individual

Base salary of congressman should not exceed twice that of state’s minimum wage
