We are democratic. I’m advocating for letting capital invest in politicians and advertise their positions freely. $20 donations from a widespread group of people can also make their opinions heard effectively.

If you seized all of Bill Gates’ wealth it would fund the USA for 3 months. Do you think making Gates a pauper to fund our profligate politicians is more effective than letting Gates keep his wealth and invest as he sees fit?

I would argue Bill Gates is 10000x a better allocator of resources than the government. So maybe let him keep his wealth considering the government prints his net worth every month.
