Would you like your tax funds to be directed to campaign spots for a Nazi party? If so your in a decided minority. If not than who gets to decide what parties get to get their message out and what parties or individuals do not?

Would you also outlaw privately funding of campaigns? If so your seriously infringing on free speech. If not than you still have an incentive for "money in politics" which you see as so corrupting (despite its very low level considering the size of the issues being considered). Also why would money being distributed by government employees be free of corruption?
