Certain constitutional amendments are needed to get systems functioning again, to turn this pointless thread into an equally pointless personal point. Since the Supreme Court has failed us, we now need an amendment to re-instate Campaign Finance Reform, and also revoke corporate personhood (unless we could allow corporations to be executed like we execute people...)

I feel like you should know what corporate personhood actually means and why the supreme court ruled like it did.

I mean, you can argue that the ruling was a bad thing... but the logic behind the ruling was pretty flawless. 

 

Well i'm aware that the purpose of corporations is to assume legal liability, making it possible for individuals to build business on a scale that no one person could ever possibly be liable for as with a truly private enterprise (if Kaz Hirai were personally responsible for paying all of Sony's debts, for instance), but that doesn't mean that they should afford all rights of individuals including the unbounded ability to influence politics. It's purely a financial role, which does serve itself well.
