It would be a hell of a shot in the ass to the court, to protect peoples rights insted of corporations.

I think it's ridiculous to treat donation money as a freedom of speech issue, but OK. Why do corporations get that freedom, though? That's essentially giving them the power to vote with their wallets, and corporations do not deserve that power until they can be held accountable and responsible like citizens, certainly not until every citizen is empowered to vote.
