Want to try a little Agitprop Political Theater?
The Supreme Court just undid limits on corporate campaign limits, all in the name of "Free Speech".

How 'bout this -- launch a drive to amend the Constitution for a "One Dollar = One Vote" amendment.

Make it plainly, prima facie unconstitutional.

Maybe get one of those "Billionaires for Welfare" comedy troupes to take it up.

The object is to rub it in the public's face. In a nice way. Keep it in the press, on the comedy shows, in public discourse.

Then, later, go after the entire "corporate personhood" fraud.

I know this post is light on details and the devils therein, but I hope that my fellow malcontents can fill in the spaces. Does anyone care to add/subtract/criticize/augment this?

--d!

1. Sounds like a good idea for this group.
