as the Supreme Court of Jokers (minus Breyer, Sotomeyer, Ginsburg and Stevens) declared this.

Here's an example:

Indict Massey Energy for 25 counts of second degree murder (Depraved indifference). That means Don Blankenship himself and his board of directors has to face the indictment and his corporation, if found guilty, will go into receivership - and before even that happens, all Massey assets are frozen by the Feds to prevent looting the cash before the indictments are handed down. Once guilty, Blankenship will spend the rest of his pathetic life in prison, and all assets are transferred to a fund to help the families of the dead miners for the rest of their lives. If the mine is to continue, it will be then reformed to a union-owned company with the help of AFL-CIO, making sure that the miners will be taken care of.

Another example:

Indict U.S. Chamber of Commerce for tax evasion and fraud. That means the people involved with the Commerce will be facing prison time and a heavy fine of billions. Revoke the charter of the Commerce and make it a non-partisan version of the Commerce as it was intended - to assist small business and teach people how to start one. (I had an opportunity to learn business plan writing at the local Chamber of Commerce, and the people who taught the class were outstanding).

It is time to show the Supreme Court what they unintentionally started, and they'll be remembered as the joke of the Supreme Court and the Republicans will have no problem fixing the corporate personhood issues to save their asses. Then the Republicans can zip their lips when we nominate our liberal judges to the Supreme Court once Stevens and Ginsburg are ready to retire. Oh, and introduce an amendment limiting on how long the Supreme Court justices as well as the fed judges can serve.
