Corporations should NOT have the same privileges as individuals.
Then quit taxing them. If you can't take your hands off their dirty money, you have to live with their involvement in the political process.

What does taxation have to do with lobbyists paying off Congre$$ional whores to do their bidding? Newsflash, sparky, corps already pay the barest minimum in taxes and completely suspending those taxes won't suddenly compel them not to have lobbyists anymore. Pull your head out of your ass why don't you.

Taxation without representation. Can't throw them out of the political process unless you're ready to stop taking their money. And if you don't like whores in Congress, stop electing them.

No, but you can get away with a law banning corporate lobbying if you stop taxing them.

You're such a likable guy

Corporations are all about money. It's why they are created, why they continue to exist, and why they get into politics. You don't blame businesses for looking after their bottom line, that's what they're supposed to do. You blame a government that can't stop itself from raiding the bank accounts of anyone that makes any money and will put up with anything to keep the flow coming in. Wean yourself off of the money trough and you'll then have the moral high ground to ban corporate lobbying.
