Declaration for Independence

[archlotus]

Larry Lessig has an insightful piece in discussing the current problems with government's performance. While the focus is unquestionably Federal, it could easily apply at the state and local level as well. It isn't a terribly long read, but it is sufficiently long that it does more than lament the role that money plays in Congress. It offers some practical solutions that will take some time to implement.

I'm still digesting parts of this, and will likely have a follow-up post, but thought I would share in the meantime.
