Public Election Financing Can Pay Off for California
The "pay-to-play" system of campaign financing has led to
the domination of corporate interests in the formulation of
our foreign policies. These policies have often led to the
violation of the sovereignties of other nations, including
the overthrow of many democratic governments and their
replacement with more corporate-friendly dictatorships.
Sept. 11 was small retribution for the damage we have done
to many other countries. As our power increases, our
incursions into the affairs of weaker nations will increase
unless the citizens of this country create a government
that represents their interests as opposed to the people
who "pay to play."
