This problem of huge amounts of money being spent on campaigns has plagued the united States over the past few decades. Instead of parties and candidates controlling their elections, outside multi-million dollar companies control them. Their copious amounts of investments allow them to rule over the candidates final decision on things. Through this system, a corporation could directly overthrow all candidates and have a complete majority in the government. Corruption is a huge problem that could become a pressing force if certain companies get involved in elections and campaigns. One resolution to this immense problem is fixing the Citizens United ruling. Even though this would be hard the results would help a lot. If corporations didn't have their own "rights", many problems would be patched up since the limits could be put on them again.
