This is more on the need to control spending on candidates and elections. Unrestricted money is to democracy like salt is to good farmland.

The Controlling Money In Politics Amendment

Any recognizable “group of people,” however organized, and for whatever reason, is not a person. They do not vote in elections, they do not have a limited lifetime, and they are inherently different and frequently wield much greater power and potential sway than people. Therefore, those groups shall be limited in contributions and expenditures to the same amount as individual people.

No person and no group may avoid the limits of donations by paying inordinate amounts, providing inordinate services, or otherwise benefiting a candidate, office holder, or ex-office holder. No multi-million dollar payments for books that have no chance of “earning out,” no ridiculous speaking fees, no free travel and vacations, no forgiving ‘loans’. If it looks like a bribe, donation, or reward that violates this limitation, it’s verboten. If it looks, walks, and quacks like a duck…

Governments wield power, power is money. They attract each other like iron and magnets. To mix analogies, money flows like water: if there there’s a crack, crevice, or hole, the money will flow. And money in politics is corrosive like a strong acid. A well functioning democratic government, if it wants to survive more than a handful of human lifetimes, MUST be protected from special interests, and money is every tool in the tool chest of special interests, the hammer, the crowbar, and the wood chipper.
