Real Campaign Finance Reform

I took it all for granted
But how was I to know
That you'd be letting go
--Bryan Adams

Jacob Hornberger nails the durable solution to campaign finance reform. It is not new laws or restrictions on political donations. As long as government has the power to redistribute wealth, then markets for political favor (whether they be legal or black markets) will operate.

Those markets no longer have incentive to operate if government no longer has the power to redistribute wealth. Cut off the resource stream, and politicians and special interest groups have nothing to trade.

Real campaign finance reform requires dismantling the warfare/welfare state.
