As I understand it, the only restriction left on political contributions is the nearly century old one forbidding corporations from contributing to candidates.

Ah...I left the following out, also written by Bill Gross of Pimco (Allianz) in the same article.

"There has been no change, there will be no change, until we the American people decide to publicly finance all national and local elections and ban the writing of even a $1 check for our favorite candidates."

When he speaks, investors listen. And as I pointed out, other investment advisors are directing very large numbers of paying clients to go around the middle men until then.
