    By both sides I was talking about the two principal political parties. Sure some amount may not be corrupt but the end result is that pro-big money policies reign supreme.

    It’s hard to talk about any other possible spectrum of theoretical politics because only the two parties really make an impact, you have to look at it collectively. State and Federal legislature has the exact same problems but on different scales.

    It’s all about looking at it objectively, not idealistically. Ideals aren’t the real world. Humans are corrupt, all of us. The level of corruption varies but generally is proportional to the amount of authority we are given to make decisions with financial impacts.
