As unions decline, inequality rises

So are you saying Rupert Murdoch gets multiple ballots when visits the polling place?

You are sloppily equating "one man, one vote" and "political sway". Further, Murdoch, via his media outlets, does not directly control any voter. Does he influence voters? Without a doubt. But there is no Fox News rep checking voters ballots to ensure rightvote.

'What is the conversion rate? What are the specific mechanics? Whose speech should we limit in order to limit political sway? How do we avoid violating the 1st amendment in doing so?

You haven't presented any evidence. So I'm not sure how this is "pursuing people with relentless requests for evidence, often tangential or previously addressed".

Do you think it uncivil to ask people to justify their claims with evidence?
