If corporations are people?

Since the supreme court declared that corporations have personhood and
Mitt Romney said corporations are people, then what happens when an
oil/gas company has a bowel movement and takes a dump?

Same that that happens if a labor union does.

The Supreme Court has never ruled that labor unions are individual humans.
You fail.

When Texas executes one, then I'll believe that corporations are
people.

Ask the citizens of coastal MS and AL...

Not quite. Labor unions were already engaging in the types of activities that
corporations weren't allowed to. That decision just evened the playing field.

Today, labor unions represent only a miniscule number of workers,
about 7%. So bringing up labor unions along with corporations is a
strawman. As an example, at one time most telephone company workers
were unionized, but today only a very small few are unionized. When
Verizon workers went on strike to protest pay cuts, Verizon--a very
profitable company--crushed the strike like a bug.

Corporations have always been a certain kind of "person", that's
nothing new. But corporations are an _artificial_ person, created by
the government.

The real question people should be asking is whatever happened to anti-
trust laws? When we have banks that are "too big to fail", why are we
allowing ever bigger mergers?
