It's kind of typical ordsprog

It's kind of typical campaign finance in Florida. You find these wealthy special interests who are giving to committees and candidates, people with power to help them. . . . They're doing it as an investment, hoping for a return on their investment.

If enacted this year, campaign finance reform would reduce the power of corporations and wealthy individuals in our politics, ... Unfortunately, the special interests and their Republican allies in Congress are fighting to keep these bills from passing.

Richard Gephardt (1941-)

What we have to do is allow the people to set the agenda for this country and not the special interests through campaign finance reform,

Because tribes do not file campaign finance reports, it is not possible to compare or double-check the amounts received by candidates and reported on the candidates' campaign finance reports.

We're proud to be the number one provider of solar power in America. We were the first company to sell a solar panel in the U.S. in 1978. Now, nearly three decades later, solar energy is one of the best investments people can make anywhere, with as much as a 15% annual return on investment. Try to get that kind of return in the stock market.

They promise exorbitantly high rates of return, as much as 400 percent, ... They promise that the initial investment will be returned in full, is fully insured and protected by the 'world's top 100 prime banks'; that it's offered only to the wealthy elite, but 'just for you, we're going to let you participate by giving us some money.'

Wall Street figured out that, with the amount of money they could make off timber harvests, relative to the rapid increase in land prices, the return on investment isn't enough. It's become more important as a real estate investment than as a forest-management investment.

Ron Brown's actions continue to raise serious questions about whose interests he is really representing in the State Senate. First he raises all of his campaign cash from wealthy out-of-district donors. Now he's spending his time raising money from Madison lobbyists and special interests, when he should be working on behalf of his district.

We're not going to see any return on our investment in this program. But it's so much more important from a strategic point of view to see what really interests people. And honestly, some of the ideas that students have come up with are better than things we've venture-funded to the tune of $2 million.

This is an end run around the campaign finance laws. It does away with the contribution limits and it avoids disclosure, and it's a way for the special interests who are supporting him to buy access and buy influence.

Even small pieces of campaign finance reform are difficult. There's a lot of different interests in Springfield, and there's not a huge appetite from any corner for real campaign finance reform. We certainly saw that when the bill was introduced last session.

It's not just writing a check and hoping something good happens, Is there going to be a return on investment, and how will I know?

It doesn't necessarily mean it's totally terminated. If they want to discuss it with us again, we'd be open to doing so. ... Obviously we were looking at this from an investment standpoint, so we had to be able to justify a return on the investment.
