Should the constitution uphold the law of free speech?

The question should not be about the constitution, rather about the supreme court's interpretation of the 1st Amendment. On January 23rd this year, they voted to extend the "protections" to Corporate entities. Free speech doesn't really have a law, it's more of a prerequisite to meaningful human interactions. It's quite clear where the Founding Fathers stood on Free Speech, but in today's corporate run megamart dystopia, who knows. <><><> The Constitution does not "uphold the law" It establishes law- and more importantly, establishes law that Congress is not allowed to make. With regard to Freedom of Speech, read the section of the Bill of Rights that covers this. It guarantees that you have the right to make your opinion known, especially if it is not a popular opinion
