They're in politics as a sock puppet to serve other wealthy people's interests not because they have great ideas for improving the lives and wellbeing of people.

If you killed political donations, cushy job prospects post politics and the crazy idea that corporations are somehow people deserving of representation it might go a long way to purging these cookers from the system.
