I want to hear from the Corporations! But ...

It comes with some rules!

- they can't contribute to a campaign more than an individual!
- they have to be clearly identified in any ads
- let's bring back the Fairness Doctrine <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairness_Doctrine>
- let's eliminate PACs

You almost can't tell who's buying time on TV ("clean coal" anyone? how about the ads making fun of them?)

I'd like to know the corporate perspectives so I can know whose products to boycott.

1. They will do what in the fuck they want......

hence, the rub.

So I'm not sure what you are even talking about; you and these "Rules"!

Here's what the Corporations are saying to you; Kiss our collective asses!




Can you hear them now?

[guyton]

2. yes, corporations own us

But that doesn't mean we can't try and resist. Right now the left, right and center are all pissed about this ruling, and short of a constitutional amendment, about all we can do is to try and constrain them.

We had equal time for candidates, and the fairness doctrine, and limited ownership of media in the same market. All of these have been long gone, and all are sorely missed.

Let the corporations buy time. I can tell the truth from lies (well, mostly). I just want to hear all sides.
