Jimmy Carter: Supreme Court seems eager to see rich people become more powerful

Jimmy Carter:

I think it’s corrupted in a way, although I can’t say against the law, because the law is established by the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court seems to be eager to see rich people become more powerful and to see corporations become more powerful than individuals with their — with their previous rulings.

So I think, with the presently constituted Supreme Court, there’s very little chance that we will see money removed from politics.
