Discussions this week, at XKCD...

There is a lot of discussion on this topic this week at XKCD
http://forums.xkcd.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=57164

What is clear seems to be that this amendment needs to be broken up into several:

1. Some review on supreme court decisions (see Steven's dissension, as well as the logic errors I pointed out in the XKCD thread)
2. Some partial overturning of the ruling (The spending by Citizen's United is valid; the decision to overturn all corporate restrictions is not).
3. Entirely separate, restrictions on the claimed rights of corporations.
