We the People have lost representation in our representative democracy due to continuously higher barriers erected against participation in our democratic processes for voters and access to the ability to run for office for non-traditional candidates. Our government is dysfunctional and corrupt as our elected officials can choose their voters through partisan gerrymandering and feel safe in ignoring the will of their constituents in favor of special interests and private money.
