Campaign finance along with the revolving door of gov job to corp job are the two main areas I see where the influence is pernicious. Rand Paul and Bernie Sanders were/are the only two to recognize it as a problem. Unfortunately we'd need to boot the corporate boot-lickers from Congress for the next couple cycles to get anything done. It is a difficult play in a country that has lost its belief in democratic process and has two completely corrupted parties. We do need to try.
