Corporations and People

[ericadawn16]

"No, Mitt, corporations are not people. People have hearts, they have kids, they get jobs, they get sick, they love, they cry, they dance, they live and they die. Learn the difference."

-Elizabeth Warren

I understand how corporations are people from a legal standpoint with regards to contracts and such, but we can't send a corporation to the electric chair or deport them so no...

Not legally people in all aspects.

Slightly concerned tbh. The more I hear about Mitt, the more I fear. And there is an ocean between us.

Lucky you. But he has a lot of overseas investment. And he spent some time as a missionary in Europe.

I hate the ruling that made corporations people. I am all for business rights, but it took it way too far and made it nearly impossible to take actions against a corporation. It's robbing actual people of their power.

Interesting comment. What brought this on?
