- X-topic: Choice 1
Several people have expressed a tension between "limiting personal freedoms - in this case donating at will" and a the idea that we have a government that can be "bought and sold."
Do campaign contribution limits infringe on an individual's freedom to support the candidate of their choice or is it a small price to pay in order to restore political equity?
What factors would you consider if you were charged with developing a policy that would balance individual freedom with political equity?
