Citizens United led to the creation of Super Pacs. That is the wrong direction for any republic. To have a few large interest groups influencing the results of the election so a certain corporation/ industry gets the benefit of the policies instead of the general public.

Any political system lives on long enough, it will be cluttered by corruption and stranglehold by big businesses or local power that threatens and influences the country's main functions.

Like a river that stops flowing because of all the mud and dirt that accumulates under the river bed, these special interests are exactly that.

The mud and dirt that slows and eventually chokes the flow of our republic.
