Answer 2

Following the excerpt from the citizens United case, I think corporations and organisations should be more restricted in their campaign donations.

Step-by-step explanation:

At this moment, money plays a huge role in politics: companies use donations to help raise attention to problems the want to be taking care of, while at the same time avoiding others that could potentially be affect there own business.

This is a huge problem because there are many issues that politics should talk about, but they are not doing it because companies that pays money prefer that those subject are not talking about, like climate change and social injustice, for example.

Money in politics, especially when it comes for companies that have their own agenda, is dangerous because it put companies interested above public interest.
