    Too many people’s expectations of our government are way too high. We can’t even feed hungry children in school, how are we going to outlaw lobbying?

      Because they need to be in the opposite order. If we can’t outlaw lobbying, then lobbyists will simply pay to undo the school lunches.

      This is usually met with appeals to emotion - “how dare you sacrifice children, my child will starve to death tomorrow if you don’t trade everyone’s representation”.
