Position Paper
Prompt:
The Supreme Court has ruled that ‘Money is Free Speech'; this ruling has encouraged a torrent of funding to aid candidates through PAC's, SuperPAC's and other means. Some pundits have suggested that the 2016 election will cost at least $ 3 Billion, some have suggested $5 billion and others put the cost as high as $10 Billion.
Is there a need for Federal campaign finance reform or did the Supreme Court get it right?
