Amend My Friend | Dark Money FR$$ SP$$CH
Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, reversed century-old campaign finance restrictions and enabled corporations and other outside dark money groups to spend unlimited funds on elections. That's why were are in this mess.
While wealthy donors, corporations, and special interest groups have long had an outsized influence in elections, that sway has dramatically expanded since the Citizens United decision, with negative repercussions for American democracy and the fight against political corruption.
Amend, my friend. Amend, my friend.
Speech is for sale, and that’s no joke
wealthy old men writing big fat checks
Just ask the brothers Koch
They say it’s better than sex
Amend, my friend. Amend, my friend.
Have you heard the joke about the radical judge
who sat on the court supreme?
Oh, that’s right, it was more than one
it was five who voted to deem
Money is speech, ha ha ha,
no really, that’s the new law
Amend, my friend. Amend, my friend.
Have you ever heard a corporation fart?
Do they grow old and die?
Do they have a brain or heart?
Do they bleed like you and I?
Amend, my friend. Amend, my friend.
Amend, my friend. Amend, my friend.
