MODERATORS
Okay, they have the right to vote, but HOW do they vote? If my mom wants to vote, I can't go vote in her place as a proxy, so a person couldn't vote in proxy for a corp. Does a company have to be 18 years old to vote? In Delaware you need a state ID or a social security number to vote. Can they get those? So many nonsensical leaps in logic have to be made to make this possible.
Corporations get special treatment, like kids with AIDS at waterparks.
They skip the line. No ID required.
In the US, people are second class citizens to corporations
