    The Golden Rule says that "He who has the gold makes the rules." What most people forget is that "he who makes the rules determines how he gets the gold." Billionaires want to buy politicians and politicians want to be bought. Symbiotic relationship based on the Golden Rule.

    Leave it to the Wall Street Journal to draw as its example "bike lanes". Very indicative of how people are buying influence.

    The silver lining in here is that at the least all this it is public knowledge, unlike in many countries, where deals are made in the back rooms, without the public knowing what is going on.

    Here's how to:
    Have 90% of your wealth taken by the state as punishment, and if you are caught funding a politician again, you are to face life imprisonment.

    So what can we little people who are not Marcy's do to stop this corruption of our system by "well meaning" people with too much money and cause?

    You didn't cover what happens to the money if it isn't spent. Various things, I suppose. Could you please cover that? I suspect it has something to do with why these national politicians get to be millionaires.
