How much is too much?

How much is too much? How far is too far? Do the current Federal Financing Laws create a more capitalistic government? Have they crossed the line? I believe the answer is yes, plain and simple. First of all, money plays too large of a role in politics I believe. Even though Mitt Romney and Barack Obama certainly don't their $1.3 Billion or however much out of their own pocket, but you certainly have no change to run if you are even middle class or lower, probably even in the "rich" category. Let's say there's a guy living on a corn farm somewhere in Kansas, happy as can be, but he's smart, he has great ideas to run this country, he has great ideas for the nation, because of his corn business he can balance a budget, he has the qualifications. Just one problem, he's poor. He lives in a small farm house and makes $30,000 a year but he's content because he has his family, his farm, and the great outdoors. Ok, let's say that an agricultural PAC or something like that thinks "gee, this guy is really smart, he's organized, he does what he says he will, he has great ideas, I want to support him." Even with the maximum amount they may ask for it still won't him in the door. Secondly, why should there be a limit? If people or a company desire to give more money, why should that stop them? One may argue that would be unfair, but hey it's already unfair! An Finally, I don't necessarily think it's a bad thing that we are going to a more capitalistic government, that I'm perfectly fine with, but the intentions made about the financing laws I believe may have worked better 100 or even 50 years ago, when economy was different. Now days economy is all over the chart, money is everything. I believe that money essentially equals speech. Taking away that option is essentially taking away their voice, their speech. If a company wishes to vocalize their idea but are limited, that is a hindering their first amendment in a way I believe. Money is huge, perhaps too huge, and unfortunately in politics, it often is the deciding factor.
