I believe the Supreme Court’s decision to allow big business to financially back political candidates is a strike against democracy. Whatever happened to the idea of “We the people?” Most Americans love their country and accept the fact that we only get one vote, but they want their only vote to mean something. As we have seen in the past, there are unscrupulous people out there who try to fix elections, do gerrymandering to benefit their own political party, rig voting machines, etc., but I didn’t expect the highest court in the land to go against the average voter who expects his or her vote to count. I would suggest that the members of the Supreme Court base their decisions on what I believe were the best intentions of the men who wrote the constitution.
