Wayyy to much

In our economy right now, lots of Americans are struggling. It's hard to believe that so much money is put towards campaigns. Right now, money is needed in different parts of the government. One prime example is social security. Money needs to be put back into that fund to ensure that it doesn't run out. But instead millions of dollars are going towards campaigns where there is no guarantee that a candidate will be elected. So after the election is over, millions of dollars have just been wasted. Those millions of dollars would do so much more to help our country if they were spent differently.
