Frances Moore Lappe: Justice Thomas' Reasoning -- Dangerous for Democracy: "Thomas Jefferson began to see how corporate power could subvert democracy. 'I hope [that] we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of our monied corporations,' Jefferson said, 'which dare already to challenge our government to a trial by strength and [to] bid defiance to the laws of our country.' It seems inconceivable that founders would approve the corporate influence in elections that you have just approved.
No."
