The political scientist tells us about a dilemma regarding campaign spending. People should generally get to spend their money freely, but itβs also unfair that some candidates are able to far outspend others. The government should ensure that all candidatesβ voices have a more equal chance to be heard. However, the government should not subsidize everyoneβs expensive election campaigns.
One strongly supported conclusion is that the government should intervene rather than allowing the unfair status quo to continue. Another is that the government should level the playing field by limiting campaign spending, which wouldnβt require subsidies.
