@nevadataylor First of all, Democracy Dollars means every citizen is given $100 that they can donate to whichever politician they support
So I don't get what you mean the rich can purchase more democracy dollars - everyone gets $100
Second, the reason this works is, no matter what kind of rules and regulations you put in place, you got the face the fact, big money finds a way
You can never truly stop big money from infiltrating politics by using rules or regulations
The way to combat that is to wash it out instead, with people powered money
Say, a gun lobbyist approaches a politician, and offer him a cheque of $100,000, in exchange for said politician voting in the lobbyist's interest
Now, if 10,000 ordinary citizens give their democracy dollars to that same politician, that's $1million dollars - far out weighing whatever the lobbyist is offering
That way, the politician can then tell the lobbyist, I don't care about your $100,000 cheque, and serve the people's interest instead
