I think the advantage in using tax dollars is that there would be relative immunity from tampering, which would prevent "accidents" I'd like to see parties pay, but into a fund not managed by them.
Anyone need a insecure PW?
Good lord.

There is ZERO problem with politicians using private email accounts. The problem is with politicians using private accounts for anything involving their government work. Private email for their personal/private stuff, .gov emails for government / work related communications so they can be archived/retained/requested under FOIA etc.
This is not a difficult concept.
What kind of oversight is being proposed to ensure that Trump and his staff won't use their private email to circumvent FOIA, or send sensitive information, etc?
Huh? I'm not sure I understand what you're trying to get at. If someone has their own private account, like biglyhandsTrump@gmail.com or something, there's no oversight of that account activity. That has never been the case, nor is there a requirement for their private email to be monitored, reviewed, kept etc. They are required to abide by whatever regulations are in place regarding communications related to their government work. If they are found to violate those regulations then their private emails can be subpoenaed as part of an investigation and appropriate actions can be taken including possible criminal charges if they transmit classified information etc etc etc.
You think someone should be monitoring their private non-work-related emails and communications to ensure they don't do something bad?
So in other words, you're okay with Trump doing exactly what you condemned Clinton for.
Uh, no. Absolutely not. Do you need a refresher on the clinton email issues? She and her staff decided to use a private email server for ALL communications. Not just personal stuff, but all of it, including government work related emails and even classified emails. That means the emails were not available for FOIA requests, retention etc. The correct way to do things is to use your private email for your private activities, while using your .gov emails for all government / work related emails. Not only does it make common sense, in some cases you actually have to: you are not allowed to use government resources for certain political activities, fund raising and so forth, you have to use private resources.
Is this really that hard to follow? Do you need a diagram?
Without any changes in procedure or oversight, what is to prevent Trump and his staff to do the exact same thing?

Trump lost the popular vote. Get over it and move on. No need to pile on him at this point.
Nothing can really prevent someone from sending emails about wedding arraignments and emails containing classified information from the same private email account. Just like nothing can really stop people from illegally obtaining firearms and shooting people. That's why we trust people will do the correct thing and we are reminded with laws and punishments as a second "conscious" if we decide to not to do the right thing.
But it was determined by the appropriate legal authorities that Clinton and her staff didn't do anything illegal, but Republicans still threw fit about it.
And while nothing is foolproof, in any workplace environment, there can be procedures put in place to attempt to prevent policy violations, if only to mitigate the risk. And it's management's job to figure out what those procedures should be and how they should be implemented.
But instead we're just getting bullshit to defend hypocrisy. Or maybe some people are just so naive that they actually do trust politicians who are on their side. Either way, that's not acceptable.
Not at all. I am saying that they may have and use private email accounts to the same extent that Trump, while on the campaign trail, approved of Clinton and her staff having and using private email accounts, and that Trump must establish procedures beforehand to address and prevent the potential for the abuses that he condemned Clinton for.I'm missing the problem. So you are saying that Trump and his staff cannot have private email accounts?
CITATION NEEDED
Please show where Hillary Clinton personally sent classified information in any way that was criminal. You should be able to do so since you claim that this was proved.
Other than that, whoever broke the seal on this story should probably realize that not all the facts have trickled in just yet. What is clear is that there need to be some stricter guidelines in place for records-keeping when it comes to electronic communication.
there is evidence of potential violations of the statutes regarding the handling of classified information
The FBI director disagreed and, last I checked, he will be keeping his job under Trump.sounds criminal to me.
