This is what happens when you build a culture and its mores around money. Citizens United is just a symptom of the disease that comes with the culture that WE have created.

People who are not educated well don't vote or vote for whoever their families vote for.
Greed and education in the US is the culprit.
For so long people hardly voted. They were spending and buying and supposedly thinking the US would go on forever.
Things seem to have gone so wrong.
Money in politics: how do you get rid of this?
The only chance it seems you had was when Bernie Sanders was running for the Presidency but no the people got scared and voted wrongly in my opinion.
Now it seems you can't even rely on Justice.
I have a question that no-one seems to answer: How is it possible for an indicted man/convicted rapist to run for President? Is there no law in the land that can stop this?
"The Constitution has very few requirements to serve as President, such as being at least 35 years of age. It does not bar anyone indicted, or convicted, or even serving jail time, from running as president and winning the presidency,"
Still today, our overlords tell us that socialism is communism. The term, IIRC, was coined by a protestant pastor in Dickensian England.. disgusted with the exploitation of labor.
During that time,., there was a maximum wage and it is that era which we heard the word "wage slavery"

To answer your last question. No.

Outrageous!
I hope other nations will refuse to deal with him but I doubt it!
W.E.B.Du Bois was in prison for being a Socialist when he ran for President and got about 15% of the vote.

read Timothy Snyder
I have read Timothy Snyder.
Why is it that any of us NEED to read these books if one has had a good education?
I am not American and you can 'throw' books at me BUT I still have my own mind.
I am a reader.....3/4 books a week.
NO TV and NO 'phone.
The basic fact is this: Govt. in every Country does not LISTEN to the people!
IF every person in each country came out on the streets and said NO. YOU ARE NOT LISTENING (French Revolution) things could change.
The people on this earth have the POWER not the politicians.
No intent to judge
