#tellusatoday: Should campaign coffers be limited?

We asked on Twitter whether anything should be done to control the influence of money in politics. Comments are edited for clarity and grammar:

Super PACs must go. There is also an urgent need for campaign reform. Get rid of negative ads.

They could use some of that money to help distressed homeowners.

-- @johnlovingberg

That's like trying to put a salary cap on pro baseball. Not happening.

-- @gregpetrossian

You could abolish free speech like Putin, look at all the money you would save. And then we could censor newspapers next.

-- @daruth1

We need disclosure laws with teeth as long as Citizens United is the law. But Congress benefits too much to enact them.

-- @d2frma2

Remove money and influence! The White House should not be up for sale!

-- @DNYCE305

Pay off the deficit if you want to make a statement. That should earn respect and votes. It's not brain surgery.

-- @lisahambleton

There should definitely be a limit to money spent on campaigns locally and federally. People shouldn't be allowed to buy elections.
