I’ve always wondered where the mountains of campaign cash goes. And literally half the time the candidate loses. I really wish we could get money out of politics so we could spend our effort on things that actually make the world better.

Not if you do it right! This is an underappreciated issue in the two party system. Instead of donating to one candidate, split your money roughly in half and give to both. Now you win no matter what.

If there’s five viable candidates, this strategy doesn’t work so well.
