Created by C.L. on February 06, 2013

I would like information about CU vs FEC from the White House. I feel this is an important issue and I need to be more informed about it's impact on all three branches of the government, whether or not it represents a loss of control to corporations, and whether or not it will ever be overturned.

If elections are heavily influenced by financial resources, and corporations bring the most money to the table, won't their viewpoints be disproportionately represented?

Furthermore, if corporations control the government in this manner, will this ever change? Can't corporations just block any attempt at changing this?

Sincerely,
Someone who needs more information before reaching a conclusion
