But they had a guest on one of the last night's line up on MSNBC, that they, the 1888 SC decided to not review the issue of corporate personhood, or put it off, and then the clerk recorded that they had reviewed it and that they had given them personhood. I'm not sure where he got his information, or if I misinterpreted what he said, but it sounded a lot like it was a mistake made by the recording clerk, that they allowed to stand.
If that is so, then they never had it.
I personally know it is absurd, and could not possibly be anything that the founders intended. But then, that is always so much more subjective than most pretend, since the whole court is about judicial activism.
But getting corporations out of the political game, getting rid of lobbyists' money, would go a long, long way toward reforming our biggest problem, the corrupting influence of bribing our Senators, in particular, to do the bidding of huge entities like corporations, which is almost always in contrast to what is good for real people. Pollution curbs are a good example. Less pollution, is good for people, and bad for corporations, as they make more money. Pay issues is another problem.
Look to Max Baucus and his 3 million, such a meager sum between us and health care, in comparison to the Billions they will make if his health care bribe is allowed to work, and he is allowed to destroy the public option, and to pass his terrible bill supposedly negotiated with the three republicans to get their votes, but not even achieving that aim.
