> Why should corporations have the same rights and freedoms as human beings?

They don’t.

Exactly. Corporations have more rights. Also immunity from any real consequences, but that's mostly an enforcement thing.

  • > Corporations have more rights. Also immunity from any real consequences

    That's just untrue.

    They may have rights that you do not like that they have, but they do not have MORE rights than humans.

    Similarly, companies face all sorts of penalties and restrictions that constrain them in particular ways, including very severe penalties. There might be some actions that you think ought to have more severe penalties than they get, but that doesn't make your statement that companies are immune to real consequences false.

    • If you cut out half a sentence you can definitely counter anything. I specifically said it's an enforcement thing. If you fine meta something in Mils when they have a quarterly turn over of billions that is not consequences. But sure, let's go out and defend corporation.
