The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

Pharma buys off Congress. No action on drug prices.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

"Success is that we’ve been able to find 11 species of native bees at Market and Dolores. One of the neighbors told me that she used to have to hand pollinate her tomatoes. Now she doesn’t because the bees are there. That’s success." - Patricia Algara
