I totally understand WHY the SCOTUS came down on the Citizens United case like they did.
However, if we're going to clean up government, we have GOT to change the rules for campaigns.
Candidly, writing rules to prevent big capital from dominating the political narrative isn't going to be easy.
And the reason it is going to be so hard is this...
Who decides when a public service advertisment steps over the line and becomes a sotto voce advertisment for a particular pol?
Where does one draw the line between giving information and propagandizing for a particular political POV?
See the problem, and why the SCOTUS ruled as it did?
They truly almost had no choice if they weren't going to step on the 1st Amendment.
Censorship is stepping on the 1st Amendment. There is really no way around it, no matter what you turn upside down to accomplish the task. There is no high ground here, it is nothing more than a further disconnect.
