Since when did speech = money? Since you made it so?

Money is not free speech.. free speech is me talking or writing. Giving as much money you want to whoever you want is not Constitutional. That's why we have tax laws. Your money is not yours constitutionallly. People have a right to make laws and take it away from you if they want. That's why we have laws protecting property rights as a way of generating economic activity.

I don't want people buying my politicians anymore then they are already bought.

The right to Free Speech doesn't include writing... That's freedom of the press and in both accounts doesn't mean that you have a right to print anything you want or say anything you want. The Right to speech is granted so that you can voice your greviences to the government and peacefully assemble with out government interference - and boy would they love to do it...

Freedom of the press was added for the same reason, to print the ongoings of the government without any reprocussion from the government.

Also, I believe you are confused with paper money as to coin. The Government can only produce a standard currency through coin. Your paper money is a promessary note produced throught the Federal Reserve. The FED is not a Government agency, though they do control alot of the Government. It is because of the FED, we have the income tax Title Code 26 - What you earn is yours, and you can give what ever amount you want. The laws are written to those that are taking, not giving.
