Was Citizens United Correct?

[Fire Walk With Me]

27. Those are nice theories. In reality

-You will most likely be beaten and arrested if you march with a group such as Occupy, against a bank, during a peaceful protest. 7400+ have been, yet zero bankers are in jail for padding their bonuses with taxpayer monies, much less for illegal practices such as predatory loans, etc. You would learn that the Bill of Rights, especially the 1st and 4th Amendments, are dead.
-Research corporate donations to politicians through sites such as opensecrets. Lobbying groups as well.
-It is estimated that $2 billion was spent on this election cycle.
-Some politicians are perfectly happy to vote for legislation promoted (and donated for) by lobbyists. Recently one voted yes for the NDAA after receiving around a quarter-million dollar donation by a night-vision equipment company who stand to profit wildly from the increasing police state. Surprise, they received an enormous contract shortly thereafter. Very much like Cheney owning Halliburton stock and giving them preference for government contracts. Cheney's stock value went through the roof.
-Check my recent post regarding how private prison companies use the drug war to fill their for-profit prisons.
-I see no regulation or punishment against wall street and the banks after the theft (they call it a bailout). Zero regulation on "robosigning" foreclosure mills despite its being known for over two years.
-Rich industrialists such as the Koch brothers are intent upon purchasing politicians who will disable the EPA, because the Kochs stand to lose an incredible amount of money upgrading their factories to EPA standards. Far cheaper to purchase politicians than to upgrade.
-Under Citizens United, this IS a Fascist country, by the dictator Mussolini's definition.

If corporations can directly influence politics (read: legislation involving them), and if politicians vote where the money is, corporations effectively come to control the country. If money is speech, they are far louder than the citizens whom this government is supposed to represent. "Democracy" being a word with the root meaning "The voice and will of the people."
