Life with Representation - The Promise Of Real Democracy In The 21st Century Author:Russ Tilleman, Jeremy Johnson Imagine a trial where the defendant buys lunch for the jury every day. Where the witnesses have accepted job offers from the defendant. Where the judge recently recieved a low interest home loan with help from the defendant. Most sensible people would doubt the fairness of that trial, but when similar relationships exist between members of the U... more »nited States Congress and the corporations they regulate, voters seem to accept the situation as just politics as usual.

They have a plan to get corporate money out of national politics, and a solution that can return control of the United States to the people who live here. Life with Representation is that solution.
