So when are liberals going to talk about getting labor union money out of politics? #hypocrisy

Why money isn’t free speech and Citizens United is bullshit: You have right to liberty and due process so I cannot block traffic. Likewise, if I am yelling and screaming at people in public and making loud noises that disturb or annoy the public for a prolonged period, that is not freedom of speech but disorderly conduct. Basically my rights end where it deprives you of your rights. The First Amendment commands that Congress shall pass no law abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press. Abridge means curtail. Money can be used a tool to suppress free speech, and dark money in politics can come from out of the country from people governed their country’s laws and not protected under our constitution. Dark money gives corporations, who are not people, a virtual monopoly on political ads, which reduces in extent and quantity, and imposes restrictions on free speech because the people have to pay more due to the corporations jacking up the price of putting ads on TV. We have laws that allow dark money, so therefor dark money in politics violates the first Amendment.

"Why democracy only works when people are in charge."
Sooo... Anarchism? Yes? No? -
Well explained but your opinion on the matter is not necessary, each person should be the judge of what position s/he wants to take on the matter. Explaining the facts in a neutral way would have been enough.

typical. I just wanted to know the details of the case so I could draw my own educated conclusion, and instead I just got a bunch of anti-corporate propaganda.

The problem is, this bill is a consequence of another issue. When Citizen United wanted to make a movie detailing the past of the clintons, mainly Hillary, Clinton tried to have the movie banned.Clinton twisted it from being a movie to just being one big campaign ad. It was considered a big win for the people when the movie was allowed to be released; however it also opened up the ability for corporations to spend as much as they want on campaigns. So of course Hillary wants to overturn this ruling, considering it was made because of her, but she hasn't seemed to mind enjoying the later benefits of the same bill during her campaigning.

Yeah but if all you care about is money and don't produce good products or in the babysitting analogy, take care of the children because all you care about is money that no one will hire you to take care of their children, but knowing you'll make good money if you do a good job gives you incentive to take care of the children. I want someone who wants to produce the best product because they want my money.

This is crap. Money is speech faggots!

But aren't we a Republic? We need to get back to our roots. The COTUS / BoR. WE THE PEOPLE need to take our Govt back.
The Govt should fear it's people, not the people fearing it's Govt. -
