Yup, if you're a money losing side show business it's better to write off losses against another steady income. Incorporate only if it looks profitable.

Sorry y'all overlooked it... Should have highlighted the "Bill" section in the quote. BTW...I think most of us know about the Constitutional amendment process...or maybe not? What this quote in your OP told me is that the Dems (represented here, again, by CNN) don't know/care how it is done....and their base of followers are also clueless.

"I am a corporation" is the most ridiculous way to view having an s corp. Unions definitely aren't individuals either, they're an organization comprised of individuals, just like a corporation. Nor are News "organizations." The Citizen's decision did not really say a corporation or Union is an individual it just made clear you cannot arbitrability make rules against one group and not others. Its just as much a 14th decision in my book as 1st. The bold below is critical in understanding the decision. Justice Scalia joined the opinion of the Court, and wrote a concurring opinion which Justice Alito joined in full and Justice Thomas joined in part. Scalia addressed Justice Stevens' dissent, specifically with regard to the original understanding of the First Amendment. Scalia wrote that Stevens's dissent was "in splendid isolation from the text of the First Amendment... It never shows why 'the freedom of speech' that was the right of Englishmen did not include the freedom to speak in association with other individuals, including association in the corporate form." He further considered the dissent's exploration of the Framers' views about the "role of corporations in society" to be misleading, and even if valid, irrelevant to the text. Scalia principally argued that the First Amendment was written in "terms of speech, not speakers" and that "Its text offers no foothold for excluding any category of speaker."[34] Scalia argued that the Free Press clause was originally intended to protect the distribution of written materials and did not only apply to the media specifically. This understanding supported the majority's contention that the Constitution does not allow the Court to separate corporations into media and non-media categories.[29] Justice Thomas wrote a separate opinion concurring in all but the upholding of the disclosure provisions. In order to protect the anonymity of contributors to organizations exercising free speech, Thomas would have struck down the reporting requirements of BCRA §201 and §311 as well, rather than allowing them to be challenged only on a case-specific basis. Thomas's primary argument was that anonymous free speech is protected and that making contributor lists public makes the contributors vulnerable to retaliation, citing instances of retaliation against contributors to both sides of a then-recent California voter initiative. Thomas also expressed concern that such retaliation could extend to retaliation by elected officials. Thomas did not consider "as-applied challenges" to be sufficient to protect against the threat of retaliation.[35] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
