In the U.S. a citizen may give $2,700 per election to a federal candidate, $5,000 per year to a PAC, $10,000 per year to a State or local party committee and $33,400 per year to a national party. Citizens and corporations may give unlimited amounts to a Super PAC. A Super PAC is freed from traditional campaign finance laws as long as it does not fund a candidate or campaign or coordinate directly with a campaign how to spend donations.

For local elections limit the amount. For national elections each candidate given a set amount of money and they can not use more and a limited campaign time.

Yes and the donor must be from the area they represent, that includes corporate donors and non-for-profits if they haven't operated in that area for at least 5 years they shouldn't be allowed to donate

All funds raised are split between the people running. Donations can only come from people within the area the candidate is running.

No, but require clear disclosure of the largest donors, and how much they donated at every political event or broadcast.

Each candidate gets half a million and creates a campaign without outside help. We'll see who uses the money the best.
