well this aint good

Lots of people left and right are ok with limiting political speech. Cool huh.

Limiting money will not fix the problem. The problem is government. As long as it remains so intertwined in the lives of the citizenry there will always be people trying to gain access to the levers of power.

This is why the founders believed only a moral people could keep this form of government going

Because of leftism we have lurched toward immorality.

Leftists never want to get to the root of a problem

I agree, lets limit ALL individuals, person or corporation or union to the legal limit. Lets amend the constitution so no one person or organization can donate more NOR bundle. I read SOMEWHERE that last election cycle the lion share of the political donations nation wide were from less than 200 people. That's plutocracy my friend, and it exists right now.

Totally agree. Limit everyone. AND let's limit the campaign season. Can we make it more like Britain's system?

And we have to have full disclosure - if there are organizations buying commercials and whatnot, in today's world there is not reason that their donor list can't be available virtually ASAP. Let's know who is buying which candidate.

Money as speech means the more money you have the more speech you have.
