Campaigns in United States are currently funded by a combination of private and public money. Private funding is largely made by the big corporation, which will influence the decision in the congress, to the benefits of their own agenda and hardly considering the benefits to the public. Donation by individuals can hardly compete with the funding made by the big corporation. Banning Private funding will cut the influence of the congress by big corporation. A campaign fund can be setup to accept donations from the public or private corporation. The fund can then be distributed among the candidates. Candidate can also receive a rebate for every vote cast for the candidate

How about ban politics forever? We never needed the damn thing. To have a human being stand there in his fukin 5000 dollar suit (made by some slave in a sweathshop in Malaysia), and rant on and on about nonsensical topics while playing EVERY card right for the corporations and putting all of the debt and baggage on the people.

How about we rid of human opinionated discussion, and instead arrive at decision istead of making them.

If you dont understand what I mean by that, please look up a resource based economy, by Jacque Fresco and visit thevenusproject.com and watch the zeitgeist films made by the activist arm of the venusproject's film producer Peter Joseph
