Jack Abramoff summarized his recent 60 Minutes interview as "The Idiot's Guide to Buying a Congressman." Our political process produces ethically questionable situations and tempts those in government office to put their own political interests above the interests of our country.
Please propose a bill to Congress that at the very least does the following two things:
1 - "Follow the money." Require disclosure of the source of all money contributed to campaigns of those running for federal office.
2 - "Remove temptation." Implement Jack Abramoff's number one suggestion: Prohibit public servants from becoming lobbyists after they leave office.
Publicize the heck out of the proposal and shame those who refuse to support it.
