Citizens United 2 Yrs, Just 'Tip of Iceberg'

It's now been two years since the Supreme Court handed down its decision on Citizens United, allowing the flood gates to open for corporate spending in our political system. Today, protests took place across the country in an action called Occupy the Courts. So two years in, has public opinion soured enough for the overturning of Citizens United to have a chance? John Amato Founder of Crooks and Liars weighs in.

Citizens United would make sense in a society where income inequality and wealth disparity were non-existent. We don't live in that type of society.
