Isn't ActBlue a PAC?

By Lessig

ADVERTISEMENTS
A bunch have written asking whether one can consistently oppose taking money from "PACs" while accepting contributions through ActBlue -- a PAC. In my view, there is a difference, since every dollar given is directed to a candidate directly by an individual, and the problem with "PACs" is that it allows a single entity to leverage a number of donations. (Compare: It is not legal to take money from corporations. But if you have a PayPal account, you get a check from PayPal -- a corporation -- whenever you withdraw the money. But obviously, there's no problem in that.) But no reason to create confusion, so as we move through the alpha/beta of our site, this may be an issue to reconsider.
