DO NOT DELETE THIS. The more people know about Citizen’s United the better. Naming this decision as a lynchpin of our society’s current troubles is something everyone needs to understand. Although our system has been rotted from the inside out due to this decision, preventing any established procedure from possibly removing it, people still need to understand that we can’t have a government that runs on quid pro quo. Even if this can’t be the way to solve the problem, more awareness means that more people may try more original approaches which could possibly work.
Thank you. This is a good take down on the story. Maybe I oughta just delete.
edit: In reality I think your comment is too good to delete the whole post.
