59. I keep hearing people bashing the SC about this decision
I think the decision is going to cause a TON of problems and make an already corrupt goverment significantly worse. And to be clear I believe both parties will fall to massive corporate spending.

HOWEVER, the supreme court opinions HAVE to be based on law. I've read some of the opinions and I agree it is based in the law. If you have a problem with the law or the interpretation of the law you talk to the law makers.

The real failure in this is not that the supreme court came to this decision, it's that the lawmakers have done NOTHING to fix it. But why would anyone in DC that could potentially get access to this increase in free money do anything to jeopardize this? The fact that there is no significant progress to fix this law is frightening, and very telling. Our government is already mostly owned by the corporations and special interests, unless something is done that mostly will easily change to completely.

If you think our government puts you the people above all you a very ignorant of reality.
