NOT only should we overturn Citizen's United, I think we need to make our corporations small enough to drown in a bathtub if needed and end their natural life expectancy at 75.

Corporations used to have to re-up their status and part of that could be based on their global and local "citizenship merits" as did they clean up their own messes or leave it for the "other guy"? Did they pay a living wage or did the taxpayers have to foot the bill for food stamps and other assistance for their workers to survive?

Damm skippy. With CEOs making 300 times more than their average worker the wages they are paying are criminally low.
