    Ban political donations, all political parties get the same, small campaign budget and allotment of advertising space/airtime funded by the government instead

      The BIG unintended consequence here is that this makes starting a new party just to leech off the government a big target. Who cares if you never get anyone elected, so long as you can have government paid salaries and airtime.
