One person’s freedom of speech is another person’s propaganda undermining everything important in society. How is bribery not a type of free speech for example?
Most countries have decided that during elections people spending huge sums of money is not going to lead to good government, but who knows.
Sure but much like monopoly and guns, at a certain they become a severe detriment to society. Everything has a limit, I think it’s time we revisit those borders in court. However, I think current SCOTUS would double down on Citizens and increase it’s influence in some manner. Another big one is why if someone can see my donations to political parties, why are super pacs allowed to hide who the dark money is coming from? Seems like a no-brainer to make it publicly available. If I find some restaurant chain I frequent is donating millions to someone promoting fascism, I’d love to be able to give my business to another restaurant chain
