Just as the title says, what do you guys think of the Citizen's United decision by the Supreme Court that essentially legalized Super-Pacs and unlimited, undisclosed spending on campaigns.
Can the spending be done by big corporations? Either way, I'm wary of the idea of a super rich guy spending money on their party. Yeah, it's their money that they're wasting, but....I dunno.....I just don't like it.
I think that ALL political campaigns should have to be funded by small (or smallish) donations. That way, the candidates would be forced to run on their ideas and, presumably, the only candidates left at the end would be the ones who had convinced a large number of people that their ideas were good ones.
Well, I remember reading that that's basically what happens with Obama, he raised about 30 million dollars from near on a million donors.
