don't I feel like the asshole. :cringe:

Well, a lot of this was quasi-related.

What feedback can you guys give regarding the Fish article Cyn posted?

The Supremes (not!) got it so wrong.

What they should have done is to say: Corporations are people too ... and every registered corporation that pays taxes can have 1 vote. Enron gets 1 vote, Exxon 1 vote, Microsoft 1 vote, Blackwater 1 vote, Fox News 1 vote ... and obtw as people who vote they are all subject to individual limits on campaign contributions.

Very wise solution.

Wouldn't this just put more undue political power into the hands of those with more assets? I thought it a better idea to keep things more balanced. Wouldn't this be a move toward a corpocracy? You'd basically create a huge group of entities that would have a high voter turnout (because it'd a part of "doing business") that would most definitely vote based solely on business/corporate interests. They'd be easily wooed, in other words. Not only that, but what would stop people from creating several corporations merely to get more votes (among other benefits)?

I think it's a terrible idea.

There never was supposed to be a simple solution. That would defeat its purpose.
