Money and politics are everywhere, all around us. Having corporations that have a lot of money means a big benefit for themselves. If politics didn't involve “money” than people would be left confused. Having freedom of speech gives them an advantage since they have the same rights individuals. The decision being 5/4 left people and corporations wondering but that still won’t let it bother them too much. Giving them a limit, however, may lead to many political arguments.
I understand that corporations are treated as “individuals” but how can they when they have so many people pushing and running out small/family owned businesses because they have more money and seem to have more trends going than those small businesses. Having money always gives those who have it the bigger advantage. It’s not right.
GIANA!!!! i agree with you and also think that this is giving corporations to much freedom. They are not people so they should not be given the same rights as people. They have to much money and this would be wasteful spending. Great blog and you make some amazing points!
ReplyDeleteThat's right. That's what money can do, it will make the world go flat. If you have money, you have more power to make things possible even if it is not necessary.
ReplyDeleteYou explained this so good!! You have such a great way of always explaining things in a way that is very easy to understand. I see what you mean by them having the upper hand, but I have a hard time siding with either side. On one hand I see your point and on the other I don’t feel like we can tell them what to do with their money. I think it’s our own fault for following the trends of the people who have the advantage over us.
