Corporations are not people. I don't care how anyone tries to twist it.

C.U makes it legal for anonymous donors to fund campaigns. Putin took full advantage of that via the NRA. Unlimited amounts of money, btw.

There is no legislation that will ever undo C.U.

Nor will legislation stop states from undoing the will of the voters

Correct. Corporations are organizations. Abstract artifacts. As useless as a B-2 bomber armed with two B83 nukes without people to work it.

Didn't Democrats say that about slavery? LOL Not a lawyer, but as Congress and SCOTUS have proved in the past, times change.

Ok I'll try anyway. :laugh:

That rightee trope is sophistry, pure sophistry. Every single corporations code in all 50 treats a corporation as a person, interchangeably,
on the legal theory that people should not be able to assume corporate form and in so doing eliminate the responsibilities that adhere to natural persons.
By no stretch is it intended to grant any of the corporeal (pun intended) civil rights and liberties of personhood or citizenship.
So basically the idea is that you should not be a company to eliminate the company's common law negligence or capacity to contract and be held responsible for breach.

A corp exists as a vehicle to limit the liability of passive investing to the amt that any shareholder invests. But not to shield the corp in some artificial way or superhuman capacity for its torts.

But as the words "shall be treated as a person" inter alia, do exist, in the mesne codes, leave it to Republican scum to endow the abstraction or instrument, if you will, with such rights on that pretext.
It was a shield, not a sword.

Let me know if any of this makes sense, or should I dumb it down for Republitards? Citizens United is an outrageous perversion of the law. Period, full stop.

Ol' Buttondick? If it broke off, it broke off long before he became President. It explains a lot of his "sensitivity" to criticism of his physicality, especially his hands.

Not sure how that relates, but since you bring it up, I fully support not only requiring a Congressional bipartisan committee review the medical, both mental and physical, files of elected reps and also their financial records but also random drug and alcohol testing of every elected Federal rep.

All the paid Federal employees are required to do this so why not the elected taxpayer-funded people too?

i don't care about their tax records before they were in office, it is not relevant

Disagreed. It goes to character. I want all elected Federal leaders to be honest and of good character. YMMV
