Not only does it undermine the egalitarian premises of democratic governance, but by extending robust First Amendment protectants to unlimited independent political spending by corporations and other artificial entities, the decision exacerbates structural inequalities in political influence, distorts electoral competition, and weakens public confidence in democratic institutions.
