The only people who will benefit from this ruling is a very small, but very wealthy segment of society. Including unions as a beneficiary is probably a smoke screen but could result in an increase in union membership as the only way for the "little" guy to have any voice. If this stands it could very well be the demise of democracy in this country. This is one more step toward corporate takeover of the country. When the law shifts to favor the speech of the powerful and wealthy, I do not see how anyone can twist this into support for free speech.
