What alternative ways can you think of to handle making legislation and passing laws that would negate the increasingly polarized political climate that is happening in more and more countries?

I think spending on political campaigns is just one way to provide support to a politician. And I don't think it is the strongest. A promise of a well paying job after thier term is up would sway a lot of randos. Or even cheaper, parties and "speaking" engagements that are really fancy vacations would probably do the trick even while they are in office.
