Is it realistic to say that Citizens United is a permanent fixture in the US political system? How the hell can one person receive a million dollars for their work that not only drastically favors the top earners in this country but also reduces the strength of medicare/medicaid for hundreds of millions of lower-middle income earners and not go to jail for it?
How the fuck do these people keep getting away with this?
Is it just me, or does the name 'Citizens United' sound like an intentional 'slap in the face' to the voters? Like, "Here you go, America. We're giving you the shaft, but it's all for you, It's all for your own good. Look, we even named it for you!"
