Prof. Lessig, (btw, thanks!) Is it possible we've exploited this form of government beyond its own usefulness (as exploitation seems to be the one constant in human nature)? I agree wholeheartedly with your verdict on funding, but I'm also worried that we no longer have an "informed citizenry" able to decide much of anything that's not distilled down to 140 characters or a 30 second soundbite. Thoughts?
