Likely will not work for long.

Violate current campaign law on contribution.

Political action committees typically can collect almost unlimited sums and allow the donors to stay anonymous.

always be a factor in the provision of politics, especially in the general election of 2014, for-for-money for groceries or for cheap become commonplace in politics and the 2014 election, if it is not done then, this legislative candidates will not be known by the people and will not be chosen by the people, things like this that hurt democracy in a country, but all there is no choice because people still like it, this is called cultural factors and customs of the local community ...  8)

PACs actually need to report their donators to the IRS (and maybe the public, but I am not 100% sure on this). This is why the 529 groups have such a big supply of possible donators as they can receive donations without the donator's identity being made public to anyone. It is also why the 529 groups were targeted over the past several election cycles as the IRS wanted potential donators to be afraid their identity would be revealed if the groups were to be denied their 529 status
