DEATH PENALTY for CORPORATIONS

Corporations are not people, yet the Supreme Court endowed the corporation with personhood, resulting in the hijacking of our country's laws, foreign policy, and now, they have made an attempt at taking 1/3 of our national budget. They will be back. This failure is temporary.

In the struggle for influence over the laws of the land, corporations are the 1-ton giants in the room. Every once in a while, a David comes along to put a giant in its place, but the larger they get, the more likely it is that the giant destroys its critics.

This personhood status HAS to be reset so that the government is brought back to serve the people. Maybe we should pass a law that says whenever a corporation is responsible for a death, that the company should be dissolved. The CEOs lose their golden parachutes--CORPORATE DEATH PENALTY.

Note that I oppose the death penalty for *people* in all cases. But I can certainly see a use for the death penalty as a way to disband a corrupt company. In fact, It would result in every employee helping to police the safety of their products, perhaps making everyone safer.
