Abstract:
In an era when special interests funnel huge amounts of money into our government-driven by shifts in campaign-finance rules and brought to new levels by the Supreme Court in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission - trust in the US government has reached an all-time low. More than ever before, Americans believe that money buys results in Congress and that business interests wield control over their legislature.
