We recently got a lot of great emails in response to our wanting to write a constitutional amendment banning money from politics. Here is Dylan's response to an email:

Do not allow "pork" to be added to ANY legislation (including this amendment), make every congressman put his name on all spending that he introduces. Adding pork to a veterans bill is disgusting.

Here's one of Dylan's responses to community ideas for our constitutional amendment. Here's Dylan's audio response.

Dylan, any amendment to the Constitution has to address both the absolute dollar amount spent on campaigns and the length of time that candidates can legally campaign for. It sounds like Canada has a pretty good handle on this problem. I think the most effective way to differentiate between candidates is head to head debates which cost the candidates almost nothing compared to endless TV ads. - Don W.

We were flooded with emails after Dylan's "rant" on MSNBC.Chuck from Pleasant Hills, PA wrote in and thinks there's nothing we can do if we are "mad as hell" because our politicians won't listen.Dylan recorded his response to him on SoundCloud for DylanRatigan.com.

CHUCK, PLEASANT HILLS, PA

Dylan, Caught your call-in to your own show today. When the host asked, “what can you suggest people do if they’re mad as hell?" you said they can call their Congressman or Senator, or they can learn more about this situation in regards to tax reform, debt, etc.Sorry to be cynical, but the only phone call that a Senator or Congressman cares about is a call from their campaign contributors.It does NOTHING anymore to lodge a complaint with your representative.And, educating the public about policy and money is fine, but there is nothing actionable that will result from that.People feel powerless these days because there is NOTHING they can do as individuals when they’re "mad as hell."

We were flooded with emails after Dylan's "rant" on MSNBC. Parrish is a small business owner in Oxford, Mississippi who is struggling to keep his restaurant open in a tough economy. Dylan recorded his response on SoundCloud for DylanRatigan.com.

PARRISH, OXFORD MS:

I am a restaurant owner in an SEC college town. Without Ole Miss, we'd have 15,000 residents. Last year, 20 restaurants closed in this little town. Only by hook and crook did I survive! I pay more than half of all my revenue in taxes of various kinds. At the end of the year, after expenses and payroll, I make nothing! I don't know how much longer my business can tread water. I was very successful for 8 years, but the last two have been murder! The states of our country and Congress are infuriating! Billionaires pay nothing while I struggle each quarter to pay thousands in taxes, to the detriment of my own family's well being. It makes me so sick I can hardly keep typing.
