Citizens United correctly recognized that political spending is a form of speech and limiting it undermines fundamental liberties. At the same time, the distortions critics associate with the decision, entrenched interests, policy gridlock, and the outsized influence of large organizations, are the natural consequences of centralized federal authority.
Blaming Citizens United conflates cause and effect: the problem is not free speech, but the concentration of power that makes any speech appear disproportionately impactful.
