Support : BAN CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS Proposal !!!!
As a UN Delegate i have submitted my proposal to UN, its called "Ban Campaign Contributions", it needs 140 endorsement to become a resolution that everyone can vote on. If you want to read it and/or endorse it you can find it in the Proposal List at the UN. It's towards the last pages, use the Search option.
This act will undermine the very root of democracy.
If political parties are not to accept donations, how are they to pay for their fees? It will restrict political candidates only to the very rich. We will have countries that are, essentially, ruled only by the rich.
Not necessarily. If the current government would be to fund every viable candidate equally, and legislation is passed that requires every viable candidate equal television time, this proposal could work.

The Rogue Nation of Greenspoint wishes to point out that this question is already handled at a National level with an ISSUE and the U.N. should not even address it.
