It would take a Hoosier on the bench for that conclusion to make sense. What disgusts me most is that there is no outrage to the fact that in the same week the USSC chilled free speech rights for citizens and expanded them for corporations.

That right now it's mostly used as shorthand to describe a certain type of business entity (the limited liability corporation) doesn't mean that it's not properly applied to other collections of human beings.

But either way: you get to be led by the likes of a Cheney-Shrub; _{Icons to Look UpTo.} Apparently, after some population number N is reached: you can simply write a script - and make everybody Feel Successful. Long enough to ~'vote', anyway. (No longer is Soma needed in the water supply.) I aver that we are quite past N and the scripts are now, er Turing complete?
