The ability to have an opinion freely expressed.

:

Everything

:

1)limit length of all campaigns to 6weeks
2)Each media ad must be backed by one from the opposite point of view. A limit should be placed on the total amount spent on advertisements.
3)Politicians should be paid no more than the median wage of the US citizens and they should be prevented from all lobbyist perks.
4)All advisory commissions should have a proportionate number of regular voters as there are politicians,the rich and corporate leaders.
5)If the Republicans threaten to filibuster, make them actually do it.

Our new site is based on the notion that here in the United States, you can express yourself however you want. Hey, It's a Free Country, right? But we also know that political discourse has reached a point where people are talking past, not to, each other. We've been asking our guest bloggers "What does the phrase mean to you?" and "What's broken in politics, and how do we fix it?" Now we want to hear from you! Take the Free Country survey below. You don't have to answer all of the questions, just tell us what's on your mind.
