Lessig and I have one thing in common which makes for an excellent obscure pub quiz question. Hint: it involves a TV show. But I really have not understood his more recent moves in politics, even before his presidential run. He really needs to listen to some people who actually know how this stuff works if he wants to make things happen.
Should we minimize the influence of big money on politics? Sure. Would I like a unicorn? Yes. It's just a neverending game of whack-a-mole. Take the money out of one spigot and it will show up in another.
