    "if you do this then I'll give you this campaign donation", is that the kind of explanation it would provide? Otherwise I don't see it getting very far.

      This makes me think we need to implement a cryptographic protocol to revoke donations when politicians go back on the words that solicited the donation.

        An escrow system for political donations!

  They have one - their favorite lobbyist. Who is probably paid to explain things in a way that suits the agenda of someone with money.

    That's true, it would probably be tough to guarantee something like that would be non-partisan or without prejudice.
