Corporations as living people is the Holy Grail for Ultra-Conservative Republicans. They tried for years to make private property as virtual living people. Lawsuits such as; Kelo v. New London was one such “property rights” issue taken up by the ultra-conservative “Institute for Justice”.
Another "back door" approach to giving human rights to corporations is state legislation augmenting "property rights" over community rights.
The real reason for such “property rights” actions by ultra-conservative groups is make Corporations the same as living people under the law.
The ultra-conservative Supreme Court has done it corporations are now virtually identical to living people under the law.
A couple hundred years ago the USA fought a war against a very big property owner named King George. Now the big time property owners are international corporations.
Is the stone the “property rights” people chiseled at and the Supreme Court finished a tombstone for the Constitution of the United States of America?
It used to be “We the People” now it’s “Us the Corporations”
