Unequivocally. Which is why it won't happen until citizen united is overturned. It would be a major threat to the monopoly powers that exist.
- specialist 6y agoI empathetically agree that Citizen's United, along with all the other winner-takes-all rulesets, should be reversed. Over concentration of power, in any domain, should be counterbalanced. I just don't think we should wait. One silver lining of the federal power vacuum is cities, states, regions are no longer waiting for permission to take action. Given the tilt of the entire judiciary stack, effectively locking in the vetocracy, I don't anticipate these circumstances changing for decades. Of course, the pandemic may hit the reset button for a lot of our power sharing arrangements. But again, I wouldn't wait for permission.
