>The only people who should be politicians are the ones who'd do it with no campaign funds and median wage.

I wholeheartedly disagree.

Representing people is full time job and must be paid living wages.

People competing to represent people deserve to get funding to support living expenses while they run their campaigns.

Do you want a factory worker delivering pizza at night to represent people like him? If so, then he needs funding so that he can put food on the table while he tries to get elected. If people don't crowdfund it then there is no other option but to seek lobbyist money. No different than soldiers and police and firefighters.

The problem is that there is not enough turn over of representatives. More people being able to get living expenses crowdfunded mean there will be more competition for representatives, competition to win and keep supporters, not a competition to seek and win lobbying funding in support of re-election.
