  Lessig founded "Rootstrikers" to strike at what he thought was a fundamental root of the problem of politics in the US. I don't even know if that organization is active anymore. Their thesis is that special interest money, political corruption, and the reliance on money to even get to be a candidate in elections is a root of the problem. He did this TED talk long time ago (and several other talks) and it made a big impression on me, but it didn't catch on(?) https://www.ted.com/talks/lawrence_lessig_we_the_people_and_the_republic_we_must_reclaim?subtitle=en https://www.ted.com/talks/lawrence_lessig_we_the_people_and_...
