I have to agree with PvK.

Corporations do not need the same rights you and I have. Lets look at that.

Should a Corporation have the right to vote in elections? Does a coporation have a fundamental right to exist? If a corporation commits murder does it get the death penalty? Can it change citizenship and get a drivers license? A student loan so it can better itself with a better education?

No. All of those would be absurd because a corporation IS NOT a person. So why should it be given the rights of one? The reason is simple. Because by doing so you save time and effort on lazy legal law makers who don't want to create a seperate class for Corporations so you just say they are people. That gives them lots of rights, some they should have and some they shouldn't and you don't need to do anything cept let the courts decide.
