> First, the rich have unimaginably more power in changing people's minds If that was true everyone would love billionaires. I'm fascinated by the cluelessness of this assertion! The actual research on campaign finance says that once you've managed to inform the voters about what you stand for and who you are, further spending does very little. > simply being a contest of who can buy enough ad space to brainwash people to vote against their interests This is the most anti democratic statement I've seen in a while! If you think voters are such easily brainwashed fools, you can hardly be pro democracy! |

Relative to how many of them actively campaign against our basic interests, I would say people disproportionately love billionaires.
