Citizens United, an Assault on Our Democracy, Needs a Constitutional Amendment

the penalties differ between corporations and individual human beings. one person can commit a murder, and be executed or imprisoned for life.



with the stroke of a pen, a corporation can create effects resulting in untold financial and literal misery, causing many if not most of the conditions for causing an individual to commit crimes, violent or otherwise, and creating a certain measure of death as a byproduct.



if penalities for corporations were proportional to the economic and social effects they cause, a great many executives would be on death row.



instead, their penalties are historically light in proportion to their crimes, including offenders like Enron, DuPont or Exxon.



there exist two sets of different laws. . .one for the rich, and one for everyone else. hardly fair or balanced in any way.
