Too often in politics the people and organizations with the most money have all the access and influence. This subreddit is for discussing the ways money influences politics and how we can improve the system to make it more democratic.
Elected officials collect large sums of money to run their election campaigns, and they often pay back campaign contributors with special access and favorable laws. This common practice is contrary to the public interest, yet legal.

Hey all,
I wanted to share a really exciting contest being run by the folks at People for the American Way (PFAW.)
They're asking for everyday citizens to make a short video on the importance of getting money of out politics. The winners get $1,000, $5,000, and $25,000 respectively (no joke!)
All the info you need is right here: http://democracyforall.com/contest/
Entry is free.
I hope you'll consider entering and spread the word.
