Today, The Two Mikes spoke with Dan McMillan who is the Executive Director of Save Democracy in America (https://savedemocracyinamerica.com).
He holds doctoral degrees in law and history.
Dr. Mcmillan argues that the biggest problem Americans' face today is the amount of money in the political system, claiming that "campaign finance is a far bigger problem than almost anyone seems to think."
That the system is awash with money is obvious, but the disastrous downside of that flood is less apparent. Once elected, members of both houses of Congress are effectively the employees of their donors and not of the citizens who pay their salaries, which can be easily seen by them as paltry when compared to their donations.
