Money is speech. So why not?
- cato_the_elder 4y agoI'm assuming that you are referring to Citizens United v. FEC [1]. That was a controversial decision. I kinda disagree with framing it as "money is speech" though. It's more like "the First Amendment also applies to large faceless associations of individuals (i.e. corporations)".That has to be true at some level, otherwise the government could fetter the press.
