@BarackMcBush What do you mean by that?
-
People have a stake in corporations, but each of those people already has a vote and the right to contribute to a campaign. Giving corporations the same rights creates in our country a state of unequal voice: Rich people with large stock portfolios can speak for themselves and have those corporations (those ones in which they have a stake) speak for them again. Mitt is all about the Benjamins.

@habertree Incorrect. The 1886 Santa Clara case most certainly DID NOT say anything about corporations having the same rights as people, and DID NOT reference the 14th Amendment, except to declare it was irrelevant to the case.

I'll believe Corporations are people when America executes one of them....

@habertree Another group that suffered were the smaller businesses these corporations destroyed when they opened up. Corporations often get beneficial tax deals compared to small business owners in addition to already having far superior resources. This creates an extremely unbalanced and uncompetitive market.
-
@habertree A corporation is not a living human being, and therefore incapable of suffering. Workers for the corporation who made near minimum wage and had to live paycheck to paycheck suffer, though they have no say in how the corporation operates (their voices aren't represented by the corporation). The decision makers and upper management suffer very little if at all because they are not personally responsible for the corporation's liabilities, and give themselves massive paychecks.

@habertree Two completely different types of organizations. It doesn't take a great deal of intelligence to see the difference between a union and a corporation.
