Banning corporate money from campaigns is not a bad thing.

Enforcement (preventing corporation from re-embrusing employees) is going to be a problem. Standard tactic in DC: Give your association executive an extra 12-15 a year just for campaign donations. This is on the federal side, the FEC doesn't care, and for local stuff it will be just as bad.

Also, to some degree you'll shift money outside of campaigns into indendepent committees. Not sure how much money would be at stake here.
