Citizens United Anti-American?

Question

Citizens United, the Supreme Court decision which legalized unlimited corporate spending on campaigns (PACs).
PACs are not limited to telling the truth. They make things up about their other opponents, they make things up about their own candidate, and they can basically lie, cheat and steal."
"Citizens United has allowed money to enter politics to an extent that it is taking politics away from the citizens and putting it in the hands of giant corporations."
An ABC/Washington Post poll found that seven out of 10 Americans think the super-PACs should be illegal.
We have to get back to one person, one vote, and not have it be millionaires count and the common people don’t. That's Anti-American

The Supreme Court has become too politicized to remain objective.

That 2010 decision was one of the worst decisions ever made.  Second to the one in which they gave Bush the presidency.

I hate to tell you this, but enough money to disenfranchise voters entered politics a long time ago.

The only way to reduce or eliminate the corruption the legalized bribery our politicians engage in is public campaign financing..  It will cost taxpayers a fortune, but it will save untold billions in unnecessary wars, intrusive laws, earmarks, corporate welfare, and insider trading scandals.

The media has shown it too can lie to further the leftist agenda, and corporations and wealthy people aren't strictly right-wing, either, so I think it's a fair ruling.  If anything, because of the amount of wealthy liberals in media and entertainment, you should be glad.
