Following the Money Behind Mystery Attack Ads
The Supreme Court's new ruling, that companies are restricted to spend too much money on political ads, created a loophole that allows groups, such as Americans for New Leadership, to use ads without telling "who they are and how they are funded". Democrat DeFazio has become a victim of this loophole.
I think it very interesting how acute people could be. When policies try to regulate more, we claim that we are losing freedom and privacy. For example, a number of people are unhappy about the new potential supervision on text messages, emails, and online chatting in order to detect possible terrorists. However, when policies allow us a little more personal space, we try to exploit it in an immoral but legal way. How could we convince others that we can regulate ourselves so that we deserve more freedom and less restriction?
