BTW corporations are not people until Texas executes one of them. Got it? Until then they are just "a body formed and authorized by law to act as a single person although constituted by one or more persons and legally endowed with various rights and duties including the capacity of succession"
"Corporations are people" well that’s not what I meant exactly, "I don't care about poor people" well that’s not what I meant exactly, "I enjoy firing people" well that’s not what I meant exactly. OKAY MITT THEN TELL ME WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN. YOU CAN'T SAY ANYTHING GOOD ABOUT AMERICANSYOU JUST A RICH BIGOT PRICK WHO DOESN'T KNOW WTF HE IS TALKING ABOUT. EITHER SAY WHAT YOU MEAN OR GET THE FUCK OFF THE STAGE BITCH!!! RON PAUL 2012 MOTHERFUCKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
According to the Merriam-Webster encyclopedia website, a corporation is defined as "a body formed and authorized by law to act as a single person although constituted by one or more persons and legally endowed with various rights and duties including the capacity of succession." Corporations are legal bodies designed to protect people, but they are not people themselves.
The fact that Romney had the audacity to state that "corporations are people" shows where his true loyalties lie.
He DOES have a point here. It's so easy to talk about "the evil corporations" but they DO create jobs. If they fail, their stock falls, then all the millions of PEOPLE who are invested in those stocks for their pensions, retirement funds, and 401Ks lose money too. Corporate executives do a lot of shady things. So do people. Corporation-bashing is "in" right now but I dare anyone to live without them. Romney's point is that we can't just spend and tax our way out of recession. He's right.
Too bad this guy is leading in the primaries while Paul is basically in last place. The powers that be have done a great job and we the people will just bend over and get sodomized while these big corps are getting richer. Paul has my vote but apparently it's pointless. Either the voting system is rigged or there are plenty of ignorant voters that want more of the same of the last four years.
I think there's a lot of wilful misinterpretation going on here. He wasn't trying to claim corporations are in any sense the same thing as people, but just that they are composed of people and what affects them ultimately affects people. His usage was in that sense identical to that in the famous cinematic line, "Soylent Green is people!": that was never intended to mean you could meet a Soylent Green in the street and carry on a conversation with it, but that the product was composed of them.
The right way to phrase it would have been "corporations are made up of people", and most of those people are middle class and depend on the corporation doing well to live.
The way he said it, though, makes it look like he thinks corporations as a whole deserve to be given the same rights that individuals have, which is bullcrap.
Corporations are people BUT they have limited liability, they have no criminal record, they can move from one country to another whenever they want, they are immortal etc. It would be nice if those Republican dickheads remembered that their country used to be a Democracy.
Oh great, another politician who is sucking the dicks of corporations rather than serving the American people. I swear, if Ron Paul is not the GOP nominee, then I am not voting! Or maybe I will vote for Obama, so Ron Paul can run in another 4 years rather than have to wait at least 8.
@nrdify I'm part of Ron Paul's Florida campaign, and sir I'm glad you support Ron Paul! Here is the thing though... if Dr.Paul doesn't win he has agreed to vote Republican. Right now we are in good terms with the Romney campaign although we don't agree on many issues. Ron would like to see Mitt win if he doesn't because they are good friends, and Mr. Romney will maybe consider choosing Rand Paul as VP. As you've probably noticed our campaign doesn't attack Mr.Romney like we do to the others.
@nrdify I think Ron Paul would be the best president of our generation, but too many americans are ignorant to realize this. That's why he places last in every primary.
There's no way Ron's running again after this election. He'd be 80-81 by then. Though maybe Rand Paul and/or Justin Amash will get in the game for the liberty cause next time.
@nrdify You're right about Ron Paul, but I have 2 questions. 1) WalMart paid $8,000,000,000 in taxes last year, where does WalMart get the money to pay this? 2) Also, right now an employer pays half of a worker's Social Security taxes, what difference does it make to the employer whether they pay all of those taxes or none of them and the employee pays them all with a higher salary? (any way, an employee costs the same for their work)
@cdoftx What I have an issue with is when is comes to balancing our budget and dealing with the deficit, we don't to turn to corporations making billions of dollars in profits.
@nrdify In the end, profits from corporations go to people who pay taxes and spend the money. If you have a 401k or any investments you're reaping some of those profits now. In the end, the only way to deal with the deficit and debt is through spending cuts. 40 cents of every dollar the US spends now is borrowed. You could cut every federal program except the military, SS, and Medicare and the budget still wouldn't be balanced. We can't follow California's model and drive business away though.
@nrdify Anyways, like the point in my first post, taxing corporations is nothing more than a hidden tax for people. In the end, its not rich people with yachts paying WalMart's taxes, its middle class and poor people who buy their groceries from that store. There would be no difference in terms of tax income if individuals paid all taxes and corporations paid none. You'd make more money, but you'd pay higher taxes. The only difference would be that people feel like they're paying more taxes.
@nrdify Most corporations serve the American people, if not through jobs then through the stocks dividens, and the 401Ks and pensions which invest in them. I like Ron Paul better too but it's too easy to think of corporations as endless piles of money that don't affect anything but their owners.
1889 Minneapolis & St Louis Railroad Vs. Beckwith - Supreme Court rules a Corporation is a person for both due process and equal protection. This was the rise of the Capitalist-monetary state, and the end of Citizen's freedom in America.
Whoever writing here, I am not supporting Mitt Romney or anyone since I have no right to vote for this country. But you should talk things like this once you understand what he really did on his business. He understand how money works and flows in this country much better than other Rep candidates or Pres. Obama. At least, if Obama stays, the future for this country is dark with too much debt own by China.
To add on this, do you know where pension funds such as 401k go to so that it can be repaid to you when you retire? All the money goes to where Mitt Romney used to work for.
Do you know how quick the unemployment rate of his state went down when he became a governor? It was about a half year faster than this country's recovery and was about 5% which is a good level of unemployment rate, I believe to have a enough jobs around and people changing jobs.
Do you know about people whom fired by Mitt Romney in his company? Those are the ones very skilled and smart enough that they can find another job much easier than many people on the earth. They are all educated and knew what they were doing.
Here is the last thing... Do you think what Obama is doing is working? I know some people will say yes because the unemployment rate is coming down to 8.3% in January from 9.8% or so the highest. One of the reasons is because there are more discouraged worker who are not considered to being the labor force.
Hey artman40, I am voting for Dr. Ron Paul. This video is quite amusing. Mitt is like a wind that sways in many directions . I hate to say it...he is an idiot!
Ahaaaaa: this guy just don't get it does he? I mean, how moronic can you sound saying "human beings my friends or corporations are people" get fuckin glue you nimrod. How the hell are you going to compete with Obama without the independent vote? If he sounds like he is rich and could careless about the unfortunate people in this country, guess what he is not.
95% of Paulbots don't even know Ron Paul's position on various issues. Their the sheep that goes like "HE'S FOR LIBERTY AND CONSTITUTION AND STUFF." lol they have nooo idea, Ron Paul is strongly against the McCain-Feingold Campaign Finance law because it "violates" property rights. To make a long story short, Paul also believes corporations are people.
This is awesome. Mitt thinks corporations are people...So....people are corporations....I am now going to apply for my corporate bail out! ...........................F'k face!
LEGALLY THERE IS A DIFFERENCE IN CORPORATION AND AN INDIVIDUAL THE TWO TAKE ON DIFFERENT RESPONSIBILITIES AS A WHOLE BUT IF ONE IS NOT CAREFUL IT IS EASY FOR THE GOVERNMENT TO MAKE AN INDIVIDUAL ASSUME THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF A CORPORATION. WANT AN EXAMPLE LOOK AT EVERYTHING THAT COMES IN THE MAIL BILLS, BIRTH CERTIFICATES, SS CARDS, THEYRE ALL IN CAPITAL LETTERS BECAUSE THE ONLY WAY TO DO BUSINESS IS THROUGH CORPORATIONS AND THATS Y THEY ARE SPELLED IN ALL CAPS. WHEN SPELLING YOUR NAME ITS NOT
Mitt Romney was actually telling the truth look up the word corporation in the dictioary and most of them state corporation in the defintion because in legal cases people take on the role of corporations and that is the only way that you can do business. LOOK IT UP
@Big700poundpac Its all about preception not reality you clown in the world of poltics. The democrats will paint him as mr. 1% in the general election because of his worldview and flippant disregard for people with lower wealth than him even when there in his own party. The America people may not like Obama but there sure as hell not going to vote into power a clone of Gordon Gecko.
Everything that Corporations earn go into CEO's pockets, but not so much the workers. Wow, Mitt, you lost me at Hello, but I didn't know you were THIS out of touch and this invested in the mega-rich!! This guy is a bozo and the worst example of everything that is wrong with this country.
Looks like the GOP have given you (republicans) two psychopaths to chose from. I think Newt has more potential to make a memorable mark on US politics. Mitt is just too honest.
What the hell is wrong with mitt romney? He seems like an hones guy, and obama actually knows jack shit about the corporate world (that btw is the fuel of an economy). Mitt has been a CEO and he clearly knows what he is talking about.
@Marraudor <---- apparently doesn't know jack shit about the liklihood of a CEO being a sociopath and having psychotic tendancies. most ceos got there by luck, tit for tat favoritism, blackmail/theft, or "drive": OCD... just saying. you obviously have never sat in a board room or a weekly meeting with upper management in more than one company. the tone from the top is usually selfishness, greed, and detatchment from reality.
that guy in the cowd is right when he says "the money goes into your (Mitt Romney) pocket". i thought oh this my just be a mess up in his speech but look now with $375,000 for talking out his ass. what a paid off politian, id never vote for this guy. Ron Paul bitches!!!

Romney for President! Corporations are people. People own them, people manage them, people work for them, people receive goods and services they provide. He is clearly right.
@LifeFortuneHonor Yes, corporations are people. But they are few people, usually people with good wages and people with jobs (obviously), unlike the 25 million unemployed americans that suffer every tax increase. Mitt is missing the core of America's problem, and damn he's flip-flopped about literally everything. Ron Paul 2012.
He didn't mean "corporations are people", he meant "corporations are *run by* people", meaning that ultimately, if you tax a corporation, YOU ARE TAXING THE PEOPLE RUNNING IT, thus taxing people.
@BoobyMcDoogle Vote for Obama or a Vote for Romney or Newt is the exact same thing. The whole Democratic and Republican thing is just a illusion to make you think you have a choice.While they have small issues like abortions or where to cut the budget they might disagree, but for the most part they work for the same rich corporate heads who make the laws and write policy. Time to wake the F up
@LOLz420k everything you wrote is 100% true...and proven quite nicely (and amazingly) in this video (dealing with the Illuminati and money interests owning both horses in the race), a MUST see...here: watch?v=Dy9UjczTn_M
If a corporation is a person, a single entity, made up of all the individuals working for that corporation, then why wasn't every last employee of Enron thrown in prison with Jeff Skilling?
They would each be "Enron", and guilty of many counts of fraud, would they not?
Obamney is a future baby killer like Obama and Hillary are now. Never mind their tin foil hat Keynsian economics.
If your on the fence ANYONE! Please you tube "Ludwig von Misses" one of Ron Pauls hero's so you have 1/8th a clue about what RP really is about... I beg of you- You owe it to yourself and this country. Even if you want to kill all the muslims we are broke and that is more dangerous than any Arabs
Corporations are people. The Civil Rights act of 1866 made them so. So many people have no idea what is happening or why. Just public school fools that take no effort to educate themselves. This is shown by the fact that most of you had no idea how corporations became people. The Civil Rights act of 1866 was meant to protect ex-slaves. Only 5 ex-slaves used it. But the corporate lawyers lined up to have corporations declared people. Snap out of it people. It's not liberals or conservative
The corporations own them all. How do you think a man named Berry Soetoro born in Indonesia could become president under the name Obama? The corporations put him there. And what does he want the congress to do for him. Give him control about how new businesses are started. New businesses are the main threat to the corporations. Obame/Soetoro wants to remake the patent office. This is where the corporations make the most money. By charging fees for their patents that they bought.
@sanity599 "How do you think a man named Berry Soetoro born in Indonesia could become president under the name Obama?"
Ohhh No... A birther. Sigh, and you say this?
"This has got to be the stupidest post I have ever seen. You made your opinions when you where a child and never reexamined the evidence or formed new opinions. That means your opinions are childish."
Go look in the mirror pal, You're a fucking idiot.

Ron Paul's proposed corporate tax rate is 10% lower than Romney's. I'm not complaining by the way, just trying to disperse all the Ron Paul fans when they throw down on Rom.
US has the LOWEST TAX RATES IN OVER 50 FUCKING YEARS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Where are the jobs you puke spitting Repubs?!?!?
Ohhh, that's right, your "Corporate People" friends are too busy filling their dam pockets to hire with all the outsourcing and manufacturing cross sea's they can do now for cheap since Bush was in and lowered tax rates and import tariffs.
Fuck you bastards are doomed if you vote another Repub in for PotUS. GET RID OF THE CORPORATE REPUBLICAN LOBBYISTS!!
@Nirotix This has got to be the stupidest post I have ever seen. Do you really think it makes a difference what party is in the White House??? What a head up the butt idiot. You made your opinions when you where a child and never reexamined the evidence or formed new opinions. That means your opinions are childish.
Mitt Romney would be the most controversial president that we ever had, if this being comes to power. I mean think about it, he is basically a Free market-Keynesian flip flopper, he is pro war, he has no sympathy. Tell me is that the president we want? No really... Answer me! Do we really DO want this president? Won't we be so disgusted with ourselves later? When he will send your kids to war??? When he will turn all your life savings to complete zero? I mean come on people! That's just stupid!
@maestro1110 If the choice is Obama or Romney I will take Romney any day of the week. I would rather have someone that says they are going to do something I don't like and then does it. Over a lying piece of crap that says they are going to do something I like and then doesn't do it or does the opposite.
Obama promised to close Guantanamo. Is it closed or open. The war is over why is the prison still open? He promised to close it years ago. And all the fools think he's a good guy!!!
@sanity599 Obamney can't win it's impossible- We RP people will go Gary Johnson and the rest will go Obama. It's Paul or Obama ... You can't win the next election talking about WMD's and defending NDAA ..
He's actually saying something reasonable--"corporate profits" do go to people in the form of salaries, bonuses, dividends in individual and institutional stock portfolios, and so on. I don't think he's even making an argument about corporate personhood--he's just saying that if you take money from corporations in the form of taxes, it reduces their competitiveness. Executive salaries are obscene, but they're only a tiny percentage of corporate profits.
MITT NEVER SERVED HIS COUNTRY NOW HE WANTS TO LEAD FROM THE REAR WHERE ITS SAFE REMEMBER IF YOU VOTE FOR THIS GUY IT MIGHT BE YOUR KID MITT SENDS OFF TO DIE IT WONT BE MITT OR HIS FAMILY WHEN IT WAS MITTS TURN TO SERVE HE TURNED HIS BACK ON HIS COUNTRY
Mitt Romney is a fucking sellout. "I don't want to raise taxes on my rich buddies...they donate to me are you crazy!?!?!"
One thing that Liberals and Conservatives can agree on is that we need to raise taxes on the rich. There's absolutely no excuse for the middle and lower class to be hurting, when the top 1% are making RECORD PROFITS. The rich are doing dandy in this economic collapse.
Guys I don't want America go to another war! I don't wish to see bazillion dollars created to destroy middle class and start another war on " terror " overseas. I don't wish to leave this monster called " Federal Reserve " going against the free market destroying wealth and businesses. Guys remember that 3rd world war will be a nuclear war! And bottom line is that Romney is a liar and Obama is a socialist. What do you expect from those leaders? Wake Up. Ron Paul 2012! He is my president! Salute!
WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING IS THE WORST REPUBLICANS DID TO USA;
1) REAGAN MADE SOVIET UNION DISSAPEARED AND OPEN EYES TO RUSSIA NOW THEY ARE BECOMING CAPITALISTIC COUNTRY?
2) BUSH WAS DRUNK MADE TWIN TOWERS COLAPSED, KILLED 3000 AMERICAN PEOPLE AND MADE THE WHOLE COUNTRY TO HAVE POST TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER, NOW EVERYBODY IS
PARANOID THANKS TO REPUBLICANS?
3) SPEND TOO MUCH TIME ON FUCKING LEWINSKY DRESS INSTEAD OF FOCUSING ON EUROPEAN UNION CREATED EUROS?
49.5% of Americans own stock in corporations!! That is the same percentage of Americans that pay taxes. I'd imagine that these are the same people.. people with jobs and a retirement plan. So yes, corporations are owned by PEOPLE and run by PEOPLE to provide services and products to PEOPLE. All of you occupiers need to get a job! Ow yeah you cant find one that is not working for a corporation so you'll continue looking for handouts while you are eaten away by your envy of successful people.
@LifeFortuneHonor If I owned 10 dollars worth of stock through my 401k I would be considered an owner. Nice statistic. Also, when a Saudi or any foreign million/billionaire does not pay taxes on the "American" corporate earnings they get either with low or no taxes, they are taking money/jobs away from this country.
Call citizens lazy more. I didn't know envy and laziness caused all this joblessness - is that really your idiotic argument?
@thiennguyenX2 Yeah $10 is ownership. If you want to own a big chunk of a corporation you can buy it. Nobody is stoping you. Go out and start your own and keep 100%. I didnt call average citizens lazy I'd be glad to call occupiers lazy though. Their mindset that someone owes them something caused the joblessness by increasing taxes on corporations that employ people.
Foreigners have to pay corporate tax just like everyone else. Ask Obama why companies like GE and Berkshire don't pay any taxes.
@LifeFortuneHonor You call occupiers lazy but gigantic majority's opinion within this country... wait for it.. agrees with them about wall street and corporate tax rates.
GE and Berkshire don't pay taxes. Why do you bring them up when GE's companies (MSNBC etc) are constantly trying to get companies like GE to pay their fair share. AND Buffet is the most outspoken billionaire on the topic of his company (and those like his) not paying its fair share?
@thiennguyenX2 I'm delusional? Wow. America is taking a turn for the worse starting with people like you. Yes, they have to make a profit .. wait for it.. to stay in business and employ people and make a return for its stakeholders ie 401K holders and yes rich people.
Gigantic majority opinion haha okay sure people would like to make what rich people make but wait ... ITS AMERICA they can! Most millionaires in this country are first generation rich and the majority immigrants came with nothing
@thiennguyenX2 Obama relates because he gets his money from GE. Yeah buffet is out there saying the rich should pay more but wait he got a 50B tax break from Obama. Why don't Exon or Chevron get that kind of break?
Name me one single mainstream candidate that doesn't get money from a corporation for campaigns. You singling him out like some unicorn, again, relates how?
Also, Obama did one thing, and that's extend Bush's tax rates for the year during the great recession. "Extend" does not mean "created" You follow?
As in, these tax rates were championed by Reagan, not Obama. Again, he relates how?
@thiennguyenX2 Berkshire Hathaway has not paid its proper taxes since 02 it's in litigation with the IRS but yet buffet says he'd happily pay more.. He's not paying what he is suppose to anyway. You or I'd be arrested for tax evasion. Yes Buffets net worth is not 50B but because PEOPLE like you and me, well probably not you, own stock in BH it is worth about 372B to be exact.
@LifeFortuneHonor Now you're mad at BH for not paying 'proper taxes' according to you. And it's a conspiracy that he's not in jail for tax evasion because in a country of 300 million, not one man, woman, child, prosecutor, lawmaker has wanted to bring up a case against him...
In what universe do you live?
And no shit, corps. are people. The issue, is that it is the ultra rich getting all the money and keeping it... Do you understand? You think humans confuse corporations for buildings? lmfao
@thiennguyenX2 "And no shit, corps. are people." Yes thank you!
The "ultra rich" are getting all the money? 80% of America's millionaires are first-generation wealthy!! If that were the case the the rich only get richer why is long time wealth like the Rockefellers not the owners of the world?
Yeah if rich people were not hard workers it would all disappear. But that won't matter to occupiers like you because you'll never start a corporation.
This makes you happy why? Not one single person in America believes that corporations aren't people. You're confusingly mistaking this instance for the Citizens United case...
I'm not even sure if you get what I mean by this but there I said it.
"If rich people were not hard workers it would all disappear"
@thiennguyenX2 You have no idea how wealth is created. 60% of billionaires made their money from scratch. About 175 people become billionaires every year. How many people are employed worldwide by billionaires?
How much of the taxes do that 66% pay? Not much of course they want public goods without paying for them. I'd like healthcare a house and better roads.. so why dont we take all the wealth that people have created and give it all to the 'majority'?
@LifeFortuneHonor Lmfao, now that you realize that you aren't of majority opinion.
It's ad hominem attacks on the 66% - losers don't pay taxes. What an American you are, calling 66% of your countrymen leeches who want free money. 66% is the vast majority on an issue. If you don't like it, maybe you should move somewhere else with less losers who don't pay taxes and want rich people's money?The word majority doe
This video alone will destroy him in the primary against obama

The corporation:
* The dominant institution of modern times.
*Structurally, it is a totalitarian dictatorship.
* Morally, it is a collective devoted to the worship of money where anything and everything can be a product - human, animal and ecosystem.
*Legally, it is considered a persona, one whom readily employs children in 3rd world countries.
*Ethically, it pollutes our waters and claims patents on human genes, all in the interest of license profits.

Whoever writing here, I am not supporting Mitt Romney or anyone since I have no right to vote for this country. But you should talk things like this once you understand what he really did on his business. He understand how money works and flows in this country much better than other Rep candidates or Pres. Obama. At least, if Obama stays, the future for this country is dark with too much debt own by China.

And what does he want the congress to do for him. Give him control about how new businesses are started. New businesses are the main threat to the corporations. Obame/Soetoro wants to remake the patent office. This is where the corporations make the most money. By charging fees for their patents that they bought.

Executive salaries are obscene, but they're only a tiny percentage of corporate profits.
