Having granted corporations the right to buy US elections, the Supreme Court has another opportunity to complete the subservience of individual citizens to their corporate masters.
The Supreme Court is getting involved in an unusual freedom of information dispute over whether corporations may assert personal privacy interests to prevent the government from releasing documents about them.And Elena Kagan has recused herself (something Clarence or Antonin would never do) because of prior involvement as Solicitor General. This should be a slam dunk for the right wing activist judges.
The court on Tuesday agreed to a request from the Obama administration to take up a case involving claims made by telecommunications giant AT&T to keep secret the information gathered by the Federal Communications Commission during an investigation.
The administration wants the high court to rule that corporations may not claim a personal privacy exception contained in the federal Freedom of Information Act.
