Separation of Corporation and State: The 28th Amendment

Corporations now hold unprecedented sway over the operation of our federal government. Dr. Riki Ott, author of Not One Drop: Betrayal and Courage in the Wake of the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill, explains why this calls for the 28th Amendment to the Constitution: Separation of Corporation and State. Strip corporations of their "personhood."

AGREED. Strip them of corporate 'personhood'.

[morelshaman]

Please send this proposition to Topeka, KS.

We do not have a large corporate presence, and could be first signers to the Amendment.

Get Senator Orin Hatch (R - UT) to look at this he's been hot for years to make an historic amendment to the Constitution to validate his otherwise mediocre career.

I don't know who you are, and even though I'm not a US citizen, but I really truly applaud & commend what you're doing.

what the US citizens (and actually the world) nowadays is not another empty trickery promises & lies, we know we all had enough of it and it seriously ruins so many good things.

what we need now is for a president who will seek the truth (and of course no bullshits), and most importantly WALK the talk.

Who will you sue then ? ... One of thousands of shareholders? One of their workers?

I'm working on putting together a presidential campaign. I don't know that I would win, but I suppose I could win. My campaign plan is already miles apart from anyone who has run over the past few decades. I'm not going to be going after millions of dollars and every single point will be based upon common sense and the pursuit of truth. Even if I don't win, I plan to force solutions and core causes to the debate stage around the country.

You have a campaign going on?

Where are you at in the US?

$40 Billion in pure profit, NO INCOME TAX and yet we the taxpayers are subsidizing them????

[peepnklown]

A person is a human being (natural person); individual and only through a statue can a group and or corporations can receive such a label but, such statue goes against the state and the federal/national constitution which was created to serve and protect ‘persons’ (the people) thus goes against the foundation of individual liberty. It’s sad that a 28th Amendment is needed but, it seems it is.

This will now be a part of my campaign along with the elimination of federal taxation and the elimination of the Fed. I'm for empowering LOCAL, small businesses through innovation and local economic models.

I'm also for separating ourselves from this dependency on oil through a long list of alternatives.
