El wrote..Here is a question: First of all why does this have to be a partisan issue? It isn't. It is a consititutional issue that becomes clouded with self interests when people take sides. To the particulars/questions IMO all is cool (protected free speech) to do as long as you do not incorporate. Why do I draw the line upon the act of corporation? B/c if you do this all in a corporate shell, you are having your cake (the benefits of corporation, ie shield of accountability/liability as well as tax and both individual civil and legal protection) while eating it too (the benefits of being a constitutionally protected individual or group of individuals) Also I have to say people trying to spin this with the "those people think all corporations are evil and therefore they must be socialists" IMO are not understanding the semantics/legalities of incorporation. It is an attempt to use false semantics, be somewhat intentionally misleading ignore and use the "guy on the street" definition of corporation rather than the legal one. I say this because they try to use the labor union example when labor unions are legally incorporated. Thus labor unions and any other profit or non-profit corporaion, including any PAC that incorporates to shield its members from individual liability/gain other corp advantages over the individual should fall under the same it is wrong to "pick and choose" what constitutional rights apply umbrella. Individuals are individually accountable. Individuals vote. Individuals choose representation. Corps do none of the above and thus should have no constitutional protection. None, nada, zippo Last modified: 2010-01-22 18:42:21 by lakeshorelady
