Under my proposed law, corperations and intrest groups can still donate to certain political races, but there will be a limit to the amoun't they can donate. This limit will be universal; individuals, corperations, intrest groups will all have the same political power, money wise.   Again, pros and cons? What should that limit be? $500, $20? Do you think this directly adresses and corrects the problem, or is just another dumb law? Is it practical/possible/fair to try and make the poor equal to the rich in matters of political influence?
