> the majority of those in power will never ask to limit their own power Surprisingly, many politicians love campaign spending limits, much like tobacco companies quite like tobacco advertising bans.

Whereas with a limit, of, say, $0.30 per voter? Both you and your opponent will reach the limit pretty quickly, allowing you both to get off the fundraising treadmill.
