>> It would depend on the group. If a majority is of like mind, no problem with freedom of speech. But if only a small minority, like the CEO or BOD has free use of the speech, then not so much. Which is the problem with letting corporations spend unlimited funds.

It has been long established that you cannot have "partial" freedom of speech. You either have it or you don't. Putting arbitrary limits on freedom of speech for political purposes is not a good idea if you have any interest in freedom whatsoever.

I find it strange that left wing nutjobs like yourself are willing to give up fundamental freedoms to insure political power stays with the Left. When I was a liberal, freedom to say what you wanted to say, anytime you wanted to say it, was paramount.
