Until you fix the union problem where they can force members to pay a fee that they then use to support candidates who want higher pay to support higher union dues then you need to allow corporations to spend large sums to counter this. Government doesn't really spend its own money to fight itself so public employee unions have free reign but for taxpayer revolts and fiscal conservatives like myself. Unions have done a lot of good but so have corporations who gave many of us jobs in smallish companies with a stock plan that we helped turn the company into a big one where we shared the profits. Now that Amazon, Apple, Starbucks and Tesla have grown to be large companies, we're seeing more become unionized as their potential stock gains are much less compared to employees the young work next to who were around 10 years ago and took some of salary in stock. What gets me is the sense of entitlement some get thinking doing a job that teenagers used to do in my day (making coffee, cleaning tables, washing cars and dishes) now deserves a living wage salary that they can raise a family on.
