When judges cease to eliminate conflicts of interest or the appearance thereof, they appear indistinguishable from politicians wined and dined in rarefied settings by lobbyists.
Because they are politicians being wined and dined and bribed--excuse me, lobbied--by wealthy corporate interests.
This is a good article, but what I want to know is, what are we supposed to do about it? The checks and balances built into our political system have failed. There is currently no check on the Supreme Court. They have the power to do whatever they want.
