Re: Lobbying Needs to Be Outlawed....

said by EPS See Profile :

A corporation is simply a legal fiction created by, owned by, and maintained by... you guessed it, People.
However, not all people... As well, the corporations I may have invested my money in certainly don't always take the same stance on certain issues that I do.

Corporations are not legal citizens, either, and can not be held accountable the same way that an ordinary citizen who votes can, so their voice should not be allow to be heard via bribes lobbying.

When the legal person that is the corporation can be drafted for war, arrested and imprisoned, and held to the same legal and ethical standards of every corporeal person, then maybe they should be allowed to influence politics.
