Not Super PACs? "they can raise funds from individuals, corporations, unions, and other groups without any legal limit on donation size." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_action_committee https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_action_committee
- JDulin 7y ago> a core problem in the United States' institutions - Defense industry dysfunction. You missed a word. But to answer your specific suggestion for No. 1: No, I don't think Super PACs are near the Top 10 issues facing the United States' institutions. They might be in the Top 100.
- remarkEon 7y agoThere’s a lot of conflicting incentives here, and PACs are definitely part of the problem. Luckey is, in my view, helping with just one of those issues (stagnation of innovation in the defense industry). Unfortunately I don’t see how he avoids employing, you guessed it, PACs to break the mold.
