David Frum says rich people are never weirdos (and earns a hearty heh-indeed from you know who):
If we had a system whereby a wealthy person could give $1 million to the RNC or DNC, which then distributed the money among the most electable candidates, weād accomplish two things: weād liberate candidates from spending so much of their time fundraising, and weād also allow parties to impose some discipline on their weirdos and outliers.
Sometimes I wonder…how much longer do we have to pretend we’re not living in a plutocracy?
