So all corporations have the right to free speech and spend unlimited amounts of money advocating for whatever. OK, then let's apply that logic to everything. I'll start the list, but please let your imaginations loose and add your own to the discussion.
- Apply individual tax rates to corporate profits. FICA too?
- When corporate products cause a death, charge the corporation with murder when appropriate.
- When a corporation is convicted of a crime that comes with a jail sentence, then the entire corporation must halt all work (just like an individual).
- Corporations must be subject to jury duty. When called to serve, all corporate activity must cease.
- If a draft is ever again enacted, corporations would be liable to being drafted.
Of course most of this is absurd, but it is obvious that corporations are in fact NOT people.
Applying individual tax rates to corporations would be the leaverage that would make Repuglicans run screaming from the idea that a corporation is a person.
What do you think?
