If you wish to control lobbying groups simply require EACH good idea/law to stand on its own merits. No mix & match items to get thru Congress. One would emmediately know who was in whoms pocket.
Of cource the politicians would hate it. This would make them accountable & you'd give the president line item veto.

Yes, the lobbyists have controlled congress and what bills are introduced and passed for way too long. Some have said we need lobbyists. Why? We have more bills passed everyday that should NEVER have been introduced.

Lobby groups must not be allowed to bribe the politicians and those who receive bribes must be tried for corruption.
