Before you pass the law, do you mind if I say this?
Obama, you are a F***ing Anti-America, anti-capitalist, SOCIALIST A$$hole!
Ok, Zero..now you can ban free speech you MARXIST!!
Why don’t you say what you really mean? (smile). You missed O’Bunghole!
You think corporations should have the same rights to influcence U.S. elections as our citizens do, I take it. What about if the corporation is fully owned by Iran, or by Saudi Arabia, or if the corporation gets most of its money from Saudi Arabia or Iran?
We may feel that corporations have the same interests as “We, the people of the United States...”, but I don’t think it is necessarily true. Right now, it is illegal for US political campaigns to accept money from foreigners, because we don’t trust foreigners to have our best interests at heart. Should we strike down this law as well? Likewise, we require our presidents to be native born Americans, right?
Corporations are formed for the purpose of making money and limiting the liability of the owners. Their imperative is to make money regardless; a corporation doesn’t have any sympathy or morals or concerns about what is best for the average person.
Finally, a corporation is not a member of “We, the people.” It cannot vote, cannot hold office, cannot get married....It does not have all the rights and protections of US citizens, nor should it.
