You know what I mean. However, a corporation has the same rights (or more even) than a person. In other words, corporations have personhood. They have since the 1880s, and have systematically destroyed the rights of actual people in order to gain more and more power over the years. It's amazing more people don't know about this, and that it's taken an economic crisis for people to get really angry about the corruption in corporate America.
