Millions of dollars being poured into politics. How is this affecting the economy?

318 views

When I read of all the millions involved in political campaigns I wonder what effect it is having on the economy. I almost see it as wasted resource, but know there’s more to it than that.

Whether from private individuals or organizations, this has got to have an impact somewhere. Where does it come from? Where does it go? Does it prop up advertising, venues, local businesses in a large way? Has it become a key part of our national economy?

American spend more on Valentine’s Day candy than is spent on Federal election campaigns.

It seems like a lot of money but when compared to other things, not so much.
