hungry - one is less prone to read Mr. Lasch, less
inclined to think about civil rights, let alone

What About Campaign Finance Reform? Campaign
finance regulation is of a great concern nowadays.
The fundamental question is whether it has
improved the political system, or whether it has
instead aggravated the perceived problems it
intended to solve. The available empirical
evidence indicates aggravation rather than
amelioration (Smith (a) 1049). First, limitations
on the size of campaign contributions have hardly
affected total expenditures on campaigns. They
have spawned higher levels of inde...
