Government wassupposed torepresent you.Somewhere they startedselling you.
Legislation written by lobbyists.
Votes purchased by donors.
Representatives who haven't represented anyone but their contributors in decades.
Policy shaped by the highest bidder while the people who elected them foot the bill.
The representative became the asset.
The vote became the transaction.
The government became the marketplace.
DefyPolitics remembers what government is supposed to be.
