Making Corruption Work FOR The People
[from my Google+ stream]
I was going to write something about money in politics, but thought I'd better give credit to an earlier article that had provided the germ of my idea. Fortunately, I remembered enough words to search for it and find it. Turns out it contains all of what I had fondly thought to be my idea. It's even more relevant today than it was eleven years ago.

Suppose we banned venture capitalism so from now on a guy with an idea
for a new way to index the Internet or sell books or build cell phones
or virtualize computer hardware would need to raise all his money by
persuading citizens to each earmark $10 for him. What kind of economy
would we have?
The "red-white-and-blue money" idea here would result in something
analogous in the political sphere.
