Ever since the U.S. Supreme Court handed down Citizens United v. FEC in 2010, hyper-partisan liberal Democrats like Sen. Charles Schumer have sought to reverse the decision’s removal of limits on corporate spending in politics. Schumer would thus deny freedom of political speech to millions of Americans who choose to speak collectively as corporate shareholders. He claims only to be worried about the allegedly corrupting influence of corporate money on politics. Funny, Schumer never talks about the corrupting influence of union money on politics, which is anything but inconsequential.
