There is a very important Supreme Court case looming

There's a very important Supreme Court case looming, that could very well decide whether giant corporations can purchase elections.

It's Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, a challenge to the current regulations that limit corporate funding (although nowhere near as much as such funding should be limited).

There's serious cause for worry that former corporate lawyer and extreme wing nut radical John Roberts could lead the Supreme Court to very plainly and openly state that corporations have absolute freedom of speech that can not be regulated at all.

Basically, this would be the formal introduction of fascism (the wing nuts accuse everyone else of 'introducing'), in lieu of the more informal fascism that's been taking hold thus far during the last eight years under the cabal.
