Very bad ways include bribing your way to power, per Musk &amp; friends. Of the good ways we could try, I think that Mario Cuomo, many many years ago, had a bright idea. Every citizen’s tax return would automatically be charged a fee of $2.00, toward financing the election. The candidates of the 2 major parties would divide that money, to be the ONLY money they had to use for their campaign. Why not?</p>
