This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat
We must get big money out of politics. Itβs the root of all evil in Washington.

No, because crypto is not money, it is casino chips, but less real.
This is how old people got radicalized. If you act racist and get called out on it, you can just shout βyouβre racist for calling me racistβ. Thatβs it. Problem solved.
