    Imagine not having to sit around waiting for another inevitable corporate-backed coup to strip our voting rights away because we have a system strong enough to survive a couple billionaires posting endless lies on Twitter.

    After everything they’ve done to corrupt both parties through lobbyists, funding, and industry plants, it’s just a matter of time unless we fix our system to be more resilient against manipulation with things like ranked choice voting.

      The only way to prevent billionaires from jorkin’ the system, is to make sure the system can’t create billionaires. Tax the rich.
