Romain Rolland once said that the real political boss backstage is always money. Elections in which money is a factor are nothing more than a rich man's game. Injecting money into a campaign inevitably results in a contest to see who wins the right to make more money. The state should make elections cost-free for candidates and prohibit various organs or individuals from using funds to affect the outcome of elections. Candidates should be given time and space on broadcast media and the internet to present their views. Please see the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
