    Yes, I can understand but I do not empathize. Citizens United deemed corporations as people and gave them the right to donate to political campaigns. They are not people.

      I agree with you, that’s why I was saying the tax codes should be changed as well to not incentivise it. Tax the companies (tax brackets would be good as well, so small companies are taxed lower), and no tax cuts for donations. Use the taxes to fund actual support for people, not lining people’s pockets.
