In light of the SCOTUS decision today, politicians need to wear logos of corps they are owned by
As with golf pros and NASCAR drivers, that have logos on their outfits of their sponsors, we need to propose a grassroots effort where politicians have to wear the logos of their largest contributors whenever they are out in public or on any media channels.

Let's see who is owned by whom. When you see a politician barking about how we need to fight a senseless war, on their lapels are logos for GE, Raytheon, Boeing and General Dynamics. If a politician is trying to put prayer in public schools or not allow abortions, a logo of the Christian Broadcasting Network needs to be very visible.

If they don't want to comply, then a series of logos would be in their "super" with their name and party affiliation.

It's time to show us who is owned by whom.

Campaign Finance reform is still doable the Congress can define their ethical standards well eventually.
