Corporations are not people. Money is not speech.

maxx, since you don't believe in hell, I guess you don't have to worry about going there.

Now, try believing there's no such things as world poverty or man's inhumanity to man. Thanks in advance.

Prove there is such a place as hell, then we'll talk. And why would anyone who thinks they worship a loving and merciful god believe in a hell where people are tortured by fire?

Actually, corporations are people - they are their shareholders - millions of Americans who own corporations, directly or through their unions, pension funds, mutual funds and so forth.

Then those people already have a way to contribute to elections. Giving corporations the right to influence elections is multiplying those people's influence to the detriment of everyone else.

Unions have far more influence in politics than do corporations. Proof? Look at how f'ed up this country is today; both unions and major corporations are to blame but unions much more so.

They are to blame for what? I have to laugh when people talk about corporations and unions in the same breath as though they were equals. Unions represent less than 10% of the working people in the U.S. today. Thank you Ronald Reagan.
