Individuals have to take back their government and end corporate influence in electoral campaigns so that the government remains one for people and not for corporations, Nationeditor and publisher Katrina vanden Heuvel says in this clip from The Young Turks’ “The Point” web series.

TYT’s subsequent discussion delves deeper into vanden Heuvel’s message, exploring the issue, its history and its impact, as well as further possibilities for addressing rampant corporate influence in politics and elections.
