If a large industry is likely to be susceptible to present and future regulation, doesn't it make sense to see that both Presidential candidates get paid.
The only way to get money out of politics, is to get politics out of making money.

there are various degrees
"Doesn't take money from large donors?"
sanders doesn't

no it doesn't. no candidate should be paid so that the future president regulates that industry based on the best interest of the people he is representing.
