I won't even go into ala Carte taxes.    Needless to say if you make a government clerk responsible for deciding who can and can't run for office all the freed up political money will go to that point.  Because that is where it will make a difference.

Of course you would also then be forced to prevent free speech by anyone or any organization related to any candidate as that would circumvent the rules of public funding.   Goodbye CNN MSNBC fox etc.  not just during election season but forever.
