How do you from the state legislature plan to get money out of politics? Alot of people on both sides (liberals and conservatives) think that a systematic change like this needs to happen for us to truly start progressing as a society.

Here is where the eternal dilemma of "the government knows whats best for its citizens" versus " the government is seeking whats in the best interest for its citizens" comes into play.
