I can’t help but feel that this is all by design. Legislators require financing from corporations for re-election, corps don’t want whistleblowers because it risks their bottom line. Therefore legislators don’t improve protections.

Does everything come back to campaign finance reform?



It could be a factor for sure. I don't think campaign finance reform will ever happen but whistle blower could. I've given up hope on the altruistic billionaire to do things the government is reluctant to.
