I'm conflicted on this one.
It's in how you frame the question. What money, what politics rests atop what is money, what is politics.

I see a concatenation of two sketchy principles. 'Money is speech.' 'Corporations are people'. Dylan covered the first one:

While money doesn't talk, it swears
Obscenity, who really cares
Propaganda, all is phony.

Have you seen a corporation serving on a jury?
