Only in America, corporations are humanized and given rights...

[Lost-in-FL]

while the workers are treated like commodities.

1. Yeah, it's the new American dream, the "I am a person humanoid corporation." Ain't the

2. Fiction's Fool

A corporation isn't real
It doesn't think, it doesn't feel
A legal fiction, an ideal
By right should serve the commonweal

And when it contravenes this task
Then all of us must duly ask
If law shall be a human tool
Or people play the fiction's fool.

3. I'm not sure if its only in America these days.

But we started the ball rolling.

4. They do harm and there is no chance of punishing the wrong with prison

But sell a joint to an undercover cop and you will never get a job again or rent an apartment cuz you can't pass a background check.

When they put CEO's and board members in the slam, THEN I'll stop screaming against corporate personhood so much. (maybe)

5. hardly "only in america". corporations run the world, not just the us.

and workers are treated like commodities *everywhere* under capitalism.

because under capitalism, that's exactly what they are to the bosses.

just commodities, more or less costly to purchase.

6. that's just silly american exceptionalism

we're the best. we're the worst.
