Storyline
First of all, this documentary gets my highest rating for being entertaining. The smarmy underworld of campaign financing made interesting and at times even funny.
For those of us who understand how money is corrupting the political process, this film explains the problem in detail and gives pointed examples. The major takeaway is that the United States no longer has a "government of the people" but rather a government run by special interests and the wealthy elite.
But this film is more than just a description of the problem. It points to the solutions, and for that reason, it should be required viewing for every American who cares about fixing the systemic problems of our political process. Everyone needs to understand why it's important to overturn Citizens United, why it's necessary to pass a Constitutional Amendment to do so, and what needs to happen after we do that. This film gives the audience enough information to become part of the process of taking control of our government. It's for everyone who knows something is really really wrong but feels hopeless to do anything. Pay2Play gives us hope and points us in the right direction. A must see!
