But, considering on just who are the leaders of the current populist “revolt”, I expect a very blind eye will turned to this travesty of justice (that might be a little too hyperbolic)…
what pisses me off is that they extended 1st amendment rights to corporations, why not extend all bill of rights to corporations, because in a sense if first amendment rights apply to corporations then all amendments apply to corporations. It's complete tom foolery but it seems no body cares that these corporations will run america into the ground and just leave as they have been for the past 2 decades.
