The Supreme Court decision allowing unlimited corporate influence is ANTI-Business [View All]

[Khaotic]

The Supreme Court decision allowing unlimited corporate influence is anti-business, and most of the population doesn't even see it.

The bottomline knows no bounds, has no soul, and it's greed is all incompassing.



Now, unlike the world before this decision, corporations are going to have to budget a pretty good slice of their pie to political candidates and/or projects geared toward getting a certain party or person elected.

If anyone thought the 501s or other outlets were bad, you haven't seen anything ... I mean anything yet.

For some reason there's a lot of people who think of "Corporate America" as being all chummy and in league w/ one another. Maybe they are at the beginning of the road, so to speak, but in the end each business or corporation looks out for itself. Each business or corporation has its competition. They haven't declared "war" on each other, but they know who each other's competition is, just like a mouse knows that it can never be friends w/ an owl.

What does all this have to do w/ the price of tea in China you ask?

Well ... each entity will have to spend MORE and MORE and MORE $$$ getting the person or party elected that best suits THEM. Even an all GOP Congress and White House will result in this, as it will just be passed into the primary contests where moderate conservatives will be at war against hardline conservatives, whack job conservatives, totally crazy cheese-fell-off-their-cracker-a-long-time-ago conservatives, etc., etc. You get the point, it won't end.

This will cut into their profits, and where do you think they'll pass that onto???

Yep, the consumer of their product or service.

Now, we just can't hear ENOUGH from the likes of Limbaugh and Co. in regard to how government regulations result in costing business more money that result in higher prices. They scream and scream about how government regulations cost consumers more money and cost us jobs, which is why this is ironic because as they gloat about this Supreme Court decision they don't realize it will do exactly what they claim regulation does. Conservatives would get rid of taxes, kill the minimum wage, and dump every regulation on business ever enacted if they had the chance. This would create oh so many jobs right, but to hell w/ feces in our food, terrible work conditions, etc., etc. People would have work, but the disparity between the wealthy and the poor would be HUGE to say the least.

So, back to the new reality of today, the Supreme Court decision allowing unlimited corporate influence. It's ironic that this whole thing went down in light of the Hillary movie. For those who try to make the case that this isn't a nightmare, I'll tell you to pry your head out of your ass. This is the Internet age, as well as an age where ANYONE can purchase an HD video camera and editing equipment. Put that into an equation with HUGE funding, PR & marketing offices w/ almost 50 years of consumer behavior research, and more channels to deliver communication than any other time in history. With these resources you can sell a ping pong ball for $50, ice cubes to eskimos, etc. etc. ... you get the point.

We'll all be stuck in the middle and even the businesses will be at the mercy of spending their profits to have their own influences just to stay afloat.

Monoplies will grow at an even greater rate and Corporate America will eat itself. Soon we'll all witness a corporate version of the old cliche of "keeping up with the Joneses," and it won't be as laughable as two neighbors seeing who has the best kept lawn.

This is going to be extremely ugly!!!
