Democrats frequently talk about the evils of money in politics.
At a roundtable in August, Rep. Lee claimed that the pharmaceutical industry uses "Dark money" donations to "Control Congress." Dark money refers to legal donations to organizations that don't reveal donors.
Her state-level PAC has taken money from corporations and corporate PACs.
All three candidates have also accepted money from Democratic leadership PACs.
What people who complain about money in politics typically ignore is the obvious nexus between an aggressive administrative state and the number of people seeking to influence the process.
If government couldn't harm or help them, corporations, Big Labor and other special interests might be more likely to keep their money to themselves.
The actual solution is quite simple: If you want to reduce money's role in the political process, reduce the size and scope of government.
