In an era of ballooning corporate campaign expenditures, unleashed by the Supreme Court in Citizens United, trust in our government is at an all time low. More than ever before, Americans believe that money buys results in Congress - and that our Republic has been lost.
Using examples that resonate as powerfully on the Right as on the Left, Republic, Lost not only makes clear how the economy of influence defeats the will of the people, but offers cogent strategies to correct our course - from a constitutional convention to a Regent Presidency.
A onetime friend of Barack Obama, Lessig, a professor of law at Harvard, is as critical of the president and the Democratic Party as he is of Republicans. Both have allowed the core institution of our democracy to become little more than a shill for the most powerful moneyed interests in our Republic.
America may be divided, argues Lessig, but we must recognize that corruption is our common enemy, and we must find a way to fight against it.

I have, since I was in high school, always hated the idea of money. When individuals have such power, its only a few that will benefit, and nowadays they are really benefitting. But we don’t yet have an alternate way of living, socialism will only make it far worse. Considering human behavior, I believe the only way we will ever reach a society that would be fair and just for everyone, is if humans themselves were taken over and forced into a society that is just and fair. I think most of us would welcome it, just the monsters who sit at the top would suffer in that kind of scenario. So I welcome any civilization out there with a high enough technology and compassion to come here and fix this world. I can dream cant I?
