One of the political issues we hear a lot about lately is campaign finance reform. The people who are calling for【21】usually want the government to pay for campaigns and/or limit the amount of money that candidates and their supporters can spend.
One reason that reform is【22】for is that it costs so much to run for political office. Candidates have to spend a great deal of time and effort【23】money. The incumbents (those already in office) have【24】time to do their jobs since they must attend so many fund raising events.
Another【25】is the fear that candidates will be owned or controlled by the "special interest groups" that contribute to their campaigns. Sometimes this certainly seems to be the【26】.
On the【27】side are those who caution that just because you call something "reform," doesn’t mean it’s really【28】. They【29】that our fight to freedom of speech is meaningless if the government can limit anyone’s ability to get his or her message out to the people.
If one person or a group of people want to tell the【30】what they think about an issue or candidate, they have to【31】advertising on TV, radio, and in newspapers and magazines. They might want to display billboards along highways and banners on heavily trafficked Web sites. All this【32】a lot of money.
Opponents of laws that regulate or limit spending say that you don’t really have freedom of speech or freedom of the press if you can’t get your message out. They say that in a democracy, the government should never be able to regulate political discussion or the means to distribute ideas. They believe that this is most important when the voters are about to make【33】.
What do you think about this issue? Listen to what the【34】for national office have to say. Which candidates make the most【35】to you?
