Vapor wrote..1) Corporations are organized to pursue profit for their investors. They have a fiducial duty to do so, and nothing else. Hence they will pursue speech and propaganda to the maximum extent possible in pursuit of profit. They have no interest in politics other than how politics affects their bottom line. How then does unlimited free speech for corporations advance the public interest? Monetary limits must be imposed on all corporations so that the few powerful cannot dominate the media and discourse. So then there is no such thing as Freedom of The Press. Last time I checked all (or essentially all) those newspapers were corporations. Again - if you believe this you need to amend The Constitution. It specifically protects what you claim "must be limited", and with damn good cause. 2010-01-22 13:47:19
