It is an idea, the problem is you'd need to trust the middle-men (the lobbyist and brokers).
It isn't as simply as "the smallest piece of the pie the better," companies pay a lot of money for well-connected people who can get someone to sit down and talk. So while the public could pump tons of money into a GoLobbyForMe site, how you'd measure success Vs theft is tricky.
Plus there's often other corruption less easily combatted, like post public-office jobs, or their spouse/family getting a seat on some board, or similar.
shower idea - i lack the technical skills and connections to actualize my dreams and ideas at present (can someone please help me with frontend).
The idea here is that you donate in favor of/against a bill you want. Then representatives that vote favorably to your preference receive a portion of the funds as campaign contributions. If lobbying is so cheap why can't it be done by the people for the people? I see dogs raise more than politicians on GFM.
