Roberts is a corporately owned clone who cares about the richest 1% -- the Corporations that are super big monopolies that Government and the Justices should protect us from but instead are in bed with. System cannot work as long as this is so.

Corporations are not persons; they've been granted a degree of legal protections that persons have, but they're still not 'people.' If you were asked what it means to be a human, a person, I would bet the first thing that would enter your mind is vastly different than a business structure, thankfully.

I find it funny to even talk about the possibilty

[RationaIAthiest]

I actually agree with the decision. Corporations have been treated like people for a century. So this shouldn't be surprising.

We need public financing of campaigns. period.

The Republican Party is not and never has been a party of the people. The Republican Party is an arm of big business that gains constituents by claiming ownership of emotionally charged issues that appeal to weak minded individuals that can only consider one or two issues at a time.

Congress has promised to pass neutralizing legislation to corp. spending, but I have yet to hear of anything specific. The public will have to learn to change our mindset so TV ads inform us of who NOT to vote for.

@ArianaJollee1 This is not helping the debate... I would be more willing to agree with you if you said fuck all mid-west and southern republicans, but REAL conservatives and republicans actually have decent and common sense solution to some problems.... the problem is there aren't many REAL conservatives OR republicans anymore...

[joshatkins94]

I can't believe the supremes actually fucking did this.

[urmzogna]

Can anyone overturn the supreme court?

[urmzogna]

@prodigy00073 same sort of thing; only voting individuals should be allowed to affect what happens in America. Not superwealthy anyone...in other words no buying an office. Win it on merit. I know it sounds fari and right but Congress too is 100% corrupt. Both sides. They are owned.

Unions have few members with little wealth. Corporations have many times more wealth...even if it is ours.
