want to limit exxonmobil corporation to $2,500 per campaign?

fine.

exxonmobil north sea exploration and production will contribute $2,500.
exxonmobil gulf sea exploration and production will contribute $2,500.
exxonmobil australia exploration and production will contribute $2,500.
exxonmobil whozeewhats oilcans, inc. will contribute $2,500.

you get the idea.



personally i think corporate contributions to political campaigns are ludicrous. the individual owners can already contribute, why should corporations get to contribute anything more, nevermind unlimited amounts.
