You beef isn't with "Reaganomics" nor "Citizens United". Your problem is a corruptible Congress that has too much power over corporations.
If congress had no power, no one would be lining up to buy them.
It's a guarantee that government will be corrupt. Our FF's operated on that understanding.
Because they are bought, and because Citizen's United has made it so easy, corporations hold the power and the Congress stands in the middle as a thin veneer of legitimacy to make it appear we're a Jeffersonian Republic.
