Review of Meet the Donors: Does Money Talk? (2016) by Cathy H — 09 Aug 2016

This was a very good Documentary that really shows you what all average American's are up against. One of the most disturbing things to me was the "Dark Money" that one of these wealthy Billionaires talks about.

This is the money being funnelled in back channels by the billions and those who are contributing or donating do not have to disclose ANY of that money that they give to various groups and political candidates.

Pelosi does a very good job of asking direct hard questions, and she doesn't let the interviewees wiggle out of answering her questions. You can see how many who she interviews try to use words and phrases that don't sound like what we all know is downright political bribing, and getting their back room deals done when they call on a candidate once they need that favor or favors cashed in.

CU (Citizens United) has pretty much eroded our democracy down to a plutocracy giving Americans the illusion that they actually affect change through their votes. In reality, we really can't when the deck is stacked against us like this.
