I thought this was obvious? The current speaker of the house is a multi millionaire, and she didn’t start politics as one.

She is 💯 % right!

Yes that’s the swamp President Trump is trying to get rid of the swamp that is paid for by big business over the last 30 years

Can_ada That’s how & why tRUMP got in BUT.....voters didn’t know they voted for King Con!

Bought and paid for by deep state

She also it bought and paid for by the same people...

Betraying her owners

Campaign finance reform. No more super packs. No more special interest groups. No more lobbying. No more corporate donations. Set a spending limit, money from the general fund. Everyone gets the same amount to run their campaigns. Even the playing field.

eckoing Trump Elizabeth go hang with Hillary

Of course it has, its the biggest problem right now ans why theres such an inequality. We subsidize big corps and cut taxes on wealthy. What did the middle class get? We are the workhorse of this nation, the few shouldn't be the only ones to profit off that.

She would be ever more correct to state that special interest lobbyists, with their open checkbooks, exert even more influence. Their influence reaches from local boards up thru the federal government and its various agencies.

Gdad1 Tell us something new

Gdad1 Umm. Duh?

Guess someone hasn’t been paying attention for the last 100 years

Capitalism is a strong engine because it is stimulated by personal interest but when capitalism no longer improves public interest and especially when it degrades public interest it must be regulated.

You don't need a political scientist to know which way the wind blows.

Agreed! Most Americans are being smothered/ suffocated by the power of big money!

Hahahahahahaha, Fauxcohontas has an opinion. How adorably meaningless.

This is not new nor at all original to this administration. It is only a little more in the face of all of us.

Exactly right! Question is how to wrestle control away and return to the citizens of this country? Can corporations whose ownership is obscured through shell companies really contribute large sums of money to political candidates? Does that expose political process to foreigners?

👏👏👏That is good if true; big business drives the economy. More jobs, more business, Stockmarket does well, economy good. Opposed to Democrats giving more money to protecting Arab borders for Soros One world United Nations & giving up US sovereignty & taxpayer money.

I'm sorry I have to say this, but the country is in a conservative mood and the worst thing the Democrats could do would be to nominate either Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders to run for president in 2020.

Don’t bother

Sharonresists No she is RIGHT!

Interesting. Who did she endorse in 2016 again?

And contribute to phoney politicians like Pocahontas Warren. LMFAO

Who knew ?

No shit.. Lobbying is allowed, which is bribery. The gov't has been a circus for a while, and people are surprised the biggest clown won the presidency

Big business wants illegal immigration, as does Senator Warren. Anyone think that's a coincidence?

doubt that. People still don't vote against/for people/issues they believe will harm them personally. I knew Obama wanted to redistribute wealth. Since I was above the median, I knew that meant I would see less. Trump wanted to reduce taxes and he did.

She’s right but that doesn’t make her the best Dem. nominee. I slew is impressive with his focus on climate change. What else matters if the planet is unhealthy?

She has been bought and paid for she should know

Oh geez! There’s a fresh take on politics.

Lobbying = Legal bribery

So let’s see her campaign finance reform bill ASAP. Without it the rest is just conversation

Political scientists say.. 'She Is Correct!!

This is glaringly obvious to a lot more people than just 'political scientists'.

😂 yeah I'm glad she figured that out first.🙄 It's not like any other candidate has talked about EndCitizensUnited for there entire platform in 16'.

Hum,Corporation are people!

If SenWarren puts an end to CitizensUnited, then she's got my vote.

Especially the left by Silicon Valley.

Isn't it funny that when a Democrat says something The Washington Post finds material to support it, but when a republican says something they take the opposite position.

'Political scientists say she’s got a point' As if we needed Political scientists to tell us this.

THEN WHY IS SHE STILL GETTING PAID? SHE IS BOUGHT BY BIG BUSINESS! MAGA

All who agree do the Hitler salute.
