How does political spending work?

Is it fair to argue the money spent on U.S. midterm election ads could have been better spent on poverty, education, etc or is that money earmarked for political use only?

No. That is not a good argument. The reason why money should not be in politics is because government in business and business in government are exactly the same mathematically with the same problems. Socialism/communism doesn’t work. When we allow private entities to interfere with democracy we allow people with means to have more of a vote do to psychological problems with human beings. If you are conservative, you know that communism/socialism is very bad. That is what happens when we allow money to lobby. If you are not conservative, you realize that large amounts of money equals power. Keeping money out of politics should be a bipartisan issue to protect our democracy. People I know that lobby look at me side ways when I lay it out for them, but it’s mathmatical clear as day.
