I hope these @$$holes go broke paying for their “free speech!”
And this, THIS, is what happens when people have too much discretionary income, due to low taxes!
Tax them a hell of a lot more, and let them spend their time and money on CPA’s and Tax Lawyers, trying to find loopholes and shelters, instead of spending money bribing politicians and propagandizing people to turn a Representative Democracy into a Fascist Plutocracy.
Thanks, SCOTUS!
You’ve managed to do more damage in the last dozen years than any group of “Fifth Columnists” could ever have done.
The irony is, a ton of jobs could have been created with all the PAC money and the added workers would have increased their “top line”. All they care about, though, is protecting their existing ill-gotten loot from potential taxation.
The rich and the poor are equally free to buy their own cable TV networks.
America! What a country!
