Let's talk money... In this conversation, Paige chats with Dan McMillan, the founder of Save Democracy in America, and discusses the urgent need for campaign finance reform in the United States, emphasizing the failure of the current political system and the overwhelming influence of money in politics. He introduces the concept of 'voter dollars' as a potential solution to empower citizens and reclaim democracy. McMillan highlights the bipartisan support for reform and the challenges posed by dark money and campaign finance. He reflects on the historical context of political dysfunction and the need for systemic change to ensure government accountability to the people. He believes that the true enemy is not the voters but the money that corrupts the political system, and expresses optimism for a future where Americans can unite against this common adversary.
