If one has money

it could be useful in this regard for the period of time that the loophole exists allowing public shareholders to cause a certain amount of constructive disruption. But we can't forget the systematic divestiture of most working class people over the last few decades for the very purpose of right wing control of corporate capitol and the acquisition of the government. That puts the majority of controlling stockholders in the right wing camp by design and they won't keep allowing themselves to be outed where their investments are concerned even if those investments are secured and multiplied by unethical and inhuman activities.

Constitutional rights and the enforcement thereof are only as good as the government that displays them. We are entering a time when our rights are in the balance. Out focus should lie in bringing our government back into human focus. Fighting a battle on corporate turf is a short lived and less effectual investment.
