"It's important not to limit the amount of their own money that candidates can spend, but to give other people access to enough money to run competitive races."

Previous Quote

If we are looking for one single action which will enable the poor to overcome their poverty, I would go for credit. Money is power. I have been arguing that credit should be accepted as a human right. If we can come up with a system which allows everybody access to credit while ensuring excellent repayment - I can give you a guarantee that poverty will not last long.
