It's hard to avoid when all our parties are in favor of this garbage.
Then run for election. That's the point of democracy. If our leaders are bad, there's no one to blame but ourselves.
Obligatory addendum: A downvote does not constitute a counter-argument.
I'm not educated enough to have an opinion on this, but is the EU different from other places in terms of requiring a lot of expensive campaigning to have any chance to win?
Yes, it's very different from the USA. Campaign spending is tightly limited. In most EU countries, political parties get the majority of their funding from the state, paid on the basis of past election results.
