1. +1,000,000,000. They discuss the root of of all of our problems in this segment!

This is the ONLY thing we should be bitching about! If we can fix this it will leave us free and able to fix most of the other problems of our generation. This sounds like a lot, but it is true, not hyperbole!
We need to protest this en mass this summer before the elections when they will be dumping billions in ads. It will provide a nice contrast to the argument that there is too much money in our election system. Our elections should be publicly funded and voting made mandatory. For the rights and privileges granted to us as American citizens, voting is the least we can do.
