You've nailed it. Everyday citizens don't mean shit in our political structure.
The right wing tide just does not stop. The left must recognize this and start trying to circumvent them at every opportunity. Now the repugs are exploiting their majority on the supreme court to further their agenda, that being the one branch of government where they hold an advantage right now.
"Someone always playing
Corporation games
Who cares, they're always changing
Corporation names"
let's not forget that this also allows any entity, including unions, to contribute as much as they want. Either way, it means more big money in elections and less real meaningful representation for the regular citizen, as Gaz says.
Campaign finance will not happen as long as politicians are in office!
