In 1–2 sentences, analyze why critics of super PACs argue that the Supreme Court’s decision in Citizens United v. FEC has increased the freedom of speech of wealthy individuals and groups, but not of the average American.

Answer 1

Critics argue that the Supreme Court's decision in Citizens United v. FEC has increased the freedom of speech of wealthy individuals and groups because they are able to spend unlimited amounts of money on political campaigns through super PACs. However, the average American does not have the same financial means to influence elections in the same way, leading to concerns about the disproportionate influence of money in politics.
