Supreme Court on Campaign Finances

[Antonio Balmer]

My understanding of this situation is that the supreme court's decision to remove limits for campaign financing is a cosmetic change which won't be in ruling class interests in the long run. The supreme court has always acted as a ruling class instrument and the election system has always been a mechanism for getting individuals in congress who will try to do what's best for bourgeois society. The ruling class already funds campaigns, lobbies, and fills lawmaker seats with its corporate executives. Now I suppose the facts will be more out in the open.
Any other thoughts or perspectives?

I'm not really sure why they did this either, really just exposes the "democracy" we really have. Things won't really change, it just makes it even more obvious who the politicians interests lie with.

[Christopher Hill]

Agreed, it really changes nothing except perhaps setting up a paper trail to make these transactions easier to trace, it could be said however, that this makes a mass party of labor even more practical and of course more necessary, the common person can now see through the smokescreen and in to the heart of the matter, and perhaps, just perhaps, the Socialist Appeal (For a Mass Party of Labor) will not fall on deaf ears any longer.
