The Supreme Court legalized bribery for only one very narrow and very specific group of people in the United States: politicians & if America is to survive as a republic, we must end the legal bribery

Thus, today America has a severe bribery problem.
It’s bizarre that the Court would keep intact anti-bribery laws across every facet of American life except politics, but that’s exactly what they did. Bribery is illegal in business, it’s illegal in interactions with the police, but it’s perfectly legal to bribe politicians.
No other developed country in the world has this problem, which is why every other developed country has a national healthcare system, free or near-free college, and strong unions that maintain a healthy middle class.
We’re the only major country in the world right now that is experiencing legislative gridlock on this scale. And we’ve been experiencing it for four decades.
The majority of elected Democrats are committed to ending political bribery.
For example, the For The People Act that passed the House of Representatives last year, and was only blocked in the Senate by Senators Manchin and Sinema (both well bribed) along with all 50 Republican senators, explicitly outlawed most big money in politics.
Other laws and constitutional amendments to overturn the Supreme Court’s corrupt Citizens United decision and outlaw political bribery have been proposed by Democrats literally hundreds of times in the past decades. All have died at the hands of unified Republican opposition with the help of the occasional sellout Democrat.
This cannot continue. If America is to survive as a republic, we must end the legal bribery of our politicians.
