This is our country and we need to take it back.

I am starting to think that another reform that needs to be made in the election process is the banning or advertising for political campaigns. As it is the people who end up being truly represented by elected officials are the ones who donate the most money to their campaigns. In many cases it is the very rich and corporations who are the ones who sway politicians. Many elected officials forget the people who voted them into office. Many people have stopped believing that their vote counts. We need to change this. We can make a difference. If we vote for those who truly work for the people and urge other people to do the same we can make a difference. Alone we cannot make much difference, but if we speak up together and take this country back from the rich and the corporations we can have a non-violent revolution. We have to remind the government loudly that corporations are not people but paper. Corporations do not have the same rights as people. We need to stand up to people like the Koch brothers and let them know that we are tired of their bullshit. We need to boycott the companies that they own. There are places online where these companies are listed. This is our country and we need to take it back.
