"Fix the government"? The government already knows how to spend money. They spend hundreds of billions of dollars every year on things that benefit everyday Americans. Okay, so there's corruption. There's corruption in literally every government on Earth. The answer is to start taxing the rich more.
Great, and when that money disappears into contracts for their friends and donors, which do nothing for everyday people, then what? The rich got punished (yay!), and it did nothing for anyone else. Sounds pointless.
