SCOTUS McCutchenson is not the doom and gloom knee jerked reacted by The Press...
...on the contrary it leaves in place individual politician limits and leaves the disclosure provisions alone also.
So the billionaires still need to give their individual bribes out in single honeypots, but they still can use the PAC's and conceal the money that way, and buy politicians and the media the current still corrupt way.....or die trying, right, Mr. Adelusion, sir? May I also kiss your as....., I mean, ring?
Kennedy joined in the majority, only Thomas would have let the money stay dark as well.
The goal was to overturn Buckley but this is not what happened, it clarifies Buckley by saying a you can buy as money honeypots as you want but each honeypot can only be THIS big, whatever the current law is...Thomas is enraged enough to right a dissent against Roberts....this is fun.
Unlimited total contributions is not the greatest thing, that can be countered by publicity, the open buying of candidates is still prohibited.....though pretending it is not happening is still permitted by The Press.
