SC decision will enshrine not just Fascism but also Baathism

[Phoebe Loosinhouse]

Anyone remember the role of Saadam's Baathist Party in Iraq? The Party of the elite privileged class? The people who got all the favors and got appointed into all the powerful positions?

Now just apply that to the soon to be coming corporate financed perennial domination of the Republicans. They were ALREADY Baathists at heart. Remember Monica Goodling and how she politicized the Justice Department? Remember how you had to be a Good Republican and belong to the right organizations even for civil service postions?

THAT will be additional fallout trickle down as the result of this bill. Everyone will want to be in the Party of the Winners and most will toe the Party line.

Ha! the Days of the 2 Party system will be looked on with nostalgia as we go to the 1 Party system.

1. We are now a 'plutocracy'.

We were well on the way to becoming a full-blown plutocracy already. The Supreme Court decision all but makes it official.

The words in the Declaration of Independence and Constitution probably won't be changed, so the illusion of a republic can continue to exist and fool some people -- but in fact, the form of government we now exist under is a plutocracy.
