    So, after reading through it; it’s a clever idea. One that I think is ultimately fruitless, for the most part. For one, the federal government holds higher authority than the state. Things will end up drug out in court for so long, there’ll have been at least two elections. As far as the PAC stuff goes, what’s to prevent a corporation from taking the hit on tax breaks and incentives, to far out fund their puppet politician’s opposition and just become the new cost of business? It seems like you could create a brand new power disparity with that. We need action, far faster, than state level legislation can give us. How many of these will die in sub committees? We need to turn the midterms, priority one. Full stop. Nothing else matters until you have the right people at the federal level now.
