Isn't that different then wanting government to change things.
I mean, he wants money, not free speech.
Well, money does have an effect on free speech, and on rights generally. In a capitalist society, one may have freedom and equality juridicially, but freedom of opportunity may be denied if he lacks economic clout.
Until this general problem is curtailed, we're not likely to change things around. By definition, change can rarely extend to things that are frozen. Right now, we're discussing corporations unwilling to let go of the reigns of power.
