45. No Doubt That There Are Officers Of The Court Within This Forum That Might Provide Greater Insight...

Sun Sep 21, 2025, 12:35 PM

Sunday

The Full Report regarding the full initiative and current test case is a great read that perchance might provide further insights outside of the generally 'known known' reasons.

I've not read the entire report as of yet, although I am making my way through it.

I'd love to hear back from you regarding what further perspectives you may gain as you continue to research the matter!

I'm back out to gardening...

Putting out more Japanese Black Trifele Tomatoes, Banana Leg Tomatoes, Sugar Rush Peach Peppers, Cauliflower, and Green Dragon Cucumbers today.

If I end up with enough time I'll sow some Purple Top White Globe Turnips and Broadleaf Mustard Greens after I pick the current round of Top Pick Pink Eye Mississippi Purple Hull Peas, Crimson Okra and Clemson Spineless Okra.

Our roo dog always helps!!

Indeed, This Is Step #1 MayReasonRule Sunday #17

It's long, long overdue. xuplate Sunday #3

It is! The Citizens United decision happened 15 years ago, and has been destroying our country since. Scrivener7 Sunday #6

So what would be the result if WestMichRad Sunday #4

It appears that if you get Delaware on board, you get the vast majority of corporations. 81% in 2024. Scrivener7 Sunday #7

Great point! WestMichRad Sunday #9

I wonder if this would cause corporations to leave Blue states MadameButterfly Sunday #26

It seems as if Delaware is the most advantageous state for larger companies, Scrivener7 Sunday #54

Very blue state. Delaware voted more than 56% for Harris in 2024 Wednesdays Sunday #59

But to do this, 70sEraVet Sunday #5

But if you got Delaware and the blue states, you cover a lot of the necessary ground. Scrivener7 Sunday #8

Could Delaware lose its status as the preferred state then? Lucky Luciano Sunday #11

That was my first thought as well... SickOfTheOnePct Sunday #12

Instead of corporate loss Marthe48 Sunday #20

OK, but existing corporations probably wouldn't do that right away. Scrivener7 Sunday #13

The report addresses this newdeal2 Sunday #15

But, tell me if I understand this right: a state can regulate a corporation's activities to Scrivener7 Sunday #60

How would a state prevent TV commercials from another state from entering their airwaves? MichMan Sunday #14

Regional ads are used all the time. Add a regulation, and use that same technology. Scrivener7 Sunday #21

Yes, and if you live in the vicinity of a state border, you see or hear them all the time. MichMan Sunday #22

OK. So? Are you saying it shouldn't be done because a few people at the border will Scrivener7 Sunday #24

Because that would be overturned under numerous FCC, interstate commerce, and First Amendment grounds MichMan Sunday #30

What would be overturned? You'd be limiting the money from the corporations being spent anywhere. Scrivener7 Sunday #34

So Illinois could pass a law not allowing a corporation chartered in South Dakota from airing TV ads in Indiana? MichMan Sunday #39

No. It has nothing to do with that. Delaware passes the law. All the corporations that are chartered Scrivener7 Sunday #46

Has Delaware indicated they support it? MichMan Sunday #51

Oh, jeez. Maybe read the article. Scrivener7 Sunday #52

The article doesn't mention the odds of Delaware passing it. MichMan Sunday #53

Well, then, you should call the Center for American Progress and tell them you have more important things to do Scrivener7 Sunday #55

It's really a great idea. It doesn't take care of the billionaires and their pacs, but it does Scrivener7 Monday #64

Hell Yeah! Thanks Scrivener7! MayReasonRule Monday #65

Waiting to hear how you prevent TV and Radio ads from other states from crossing state lines MichMan Sunday #31

There Are Technological Challenges, Nonetheless This Would Have A Profoundly Positive Impact Overall MayReasonRule Sunday #33

I still don't get your issue. It's a matter of where the corporations incorporate, not where ads go. Scrivener7 Sunday #35

If I understand you, if Illinois passed this law, any corporation from Illinois couldn't make political contributions MichMan Sunday #41

The vast majority of corporations are incorporated in Delaware. Delaware passes the law. Scrivener7 Sunday #48

I get what MichMan is saying... SickOfTheOnePct Sunday #43

No. It's not the state that's involved. It's the corporation. It's not the location of the ad that's restricted, Scrivener7 Sunday #50
