Because companies are people too and are allowed speech.
I know this is Europe and not America but it doesn't seem to matter where in the world its happening, that sentiment rings true.
Don't see how this excuses secret talks.
I'm not excusing anything. I'm starting the reason why its happening. Its a problem and should be dealt with.
Companies aren't people though. I have never seen a company go to prison.
Are you aware of citizens united?
Yes I am aware of that travesty. Ridiculous.
So then legally companies are people. It is a travesty. It is insane. But it's also reality.
Even legally it doesn't add up. There are so many instances where law for individuals can't be applied to companies that are just hand waved away so they can enjoy bribery. Sometimes living in this world feels like living in an insane asylum.
Definitely can't argue with that last point. Shits wild. Hopefully the Hawaii law sticks
