Yes, there are problems, with making a Corporation a legal person. A Corporation isn’t a person in documentation at all. There are employees, stock holders and customers who are real persons. Really a Corporation is about property rights, “no this has nothing to do with slavery”. If the Corporation is bad enough, the government should absolve it if needed.
Corporations are a legal entity—or a legal fiction. Treating one in any way as a discrete person makes zero intellectual sense. You might as well call a town a person.

Only one of the tragic consequences of equating corporations with individuals.

Magats will never recognize this as satire.
Not any part.

I’m a Christian, and I agree with my atheist pal Bolling. This blows.

Someone posited that they’d believe “corporations are people, my friend” when one could be executed. Seems timely now.

Corporations may be legal “people”, but they don’t worship the same God…

Oh, the Supreme Court decided that a bribe can be nice
Only if it’s a corporate bribe
They’ll attack with their PACs and other such like vice
But I don’t belong to that tribe

I don’t have the money to buy polit’cal honey
Or give Congress my shirt and coat
My bribing funds are lacking
From pollution I am hacking
No, you can’t buy a vote with a vote

If you give to them and buy their stocks and bonds you will be rewarded a thousandfold.

“Corporate Christianity” and “Christian Nationalism”: two obvious oxymorons.

If these were sincerely held beliefs, I’d worry. But their true profit, Gordon Gekko laid it out for them. “Greed is good”.
