Corporations are people.


But they are special people.

They want all the benefits of being a citizen but they want none of the costs or responsibilities.

They want to be exempt from international law. They do not want to be held to any judicial standards. They prefer to go before a board rather than go before a jury.

Because they are special. Because they are "job creators".

They want no accountability. If they pollute the air and water, that is simply the cost of doing business. If people die because of their actions, they do not want to go before a jury - they want to go before a special board of like-minded business people.

If this were a chess game, the American people would be in checkmate. In fact, the world is in checkmate and the number one chess player in the world is getting ready to surrender the queen.

Still an idiot i see.

Corporations sound an awful lot like Liberal Democrats.

Libs really don't have a firm understanding of what it takes to qualify as people.
They think pets and animals are people.
They think any endangered species are people.
They even lean towards considering trees as people.
If only they could be made to understand that the act of living kills millions of micro organisms daily.
Micro organisms are people.
And people don't like to be provoked.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

They also think that conservatives are not 'people.'

US Corporate Taxes are within a percentage point of the highest anywhere, (D)Umbass.  Now, add in State and Local taxes.

How do you like me now, (D)Ufuss?    :bird:
              

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.
