For reasons that I don't understand corporations are given exactly the same rights as human beings. The Bill of Rights as well as constitutional rights are given to any corporate body. The only purpose of this that I can see is the evasion of punishment. I don't know a lot about business though, so my question is:
Can anyone put up a reasonable proposition as to why corporate personhood is necessary? And also: In what ways does the positive aspects outweigh the negative ones, or vice versa? I have never heard the conservative/capitolist argument for this... please supply. |
