Corporations can now dump all the money they want into politics. The Supreme Court overturned laws restricting corporations form modling politics to their interest with direct money infusion for something like a century.
It makes you feel so small, and in a system outside of your control or caring.
Per Barney Frank on the Rachel Maddow Show, the only hope is that Congress could enact corporate law restricting their contributions, since the political law is now trashed.
Wtb a government interest in it's people.
“overturned laws restricting corporations form modling politics to their interest”
two in this one! it should be from not form, and molding not modling.
What is interesting is that corps have constitutional rights based on previous Supreme Court rulings. It is troubling to begin with that bodiless entities share the same protections as individual human beings.
