So, they could own a couple companies, or do well in stocks, but the limit is 100x the household median income, regardless of the lowest paid employee.

But how does that help? They already have a pile of wealth that would keep growing, and, as I said, they can simply fund their political activities from their business rather than their personal wealth, and they would probably spend the same amount of money, asking for the same things.
My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.
