White House correspondent, Sarah Jones', exposition of corporate personhood, references the movie, "The Corporation". She uses its “personality diagnostic checklist” to diagnose modern corporations:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Callous disregard for the feelings of others. CHECK!
Incapacity to maintain enduring relationships.CHECK!
Reckless disregard for the safety of others. CHECK!
Deceitfulness: repeated lying and conniving others for profit. CHECK!
Incapacity to experience guilt. CHECK!
Failure to conform to social norms with respect to lawful behaviors. CHECK!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Her conclusion, if corporations are people: “CORPORATIONS ARE PSYCHOPATHS!”
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fact is, while one party is more blatant in its ties to corporate governance, both parties, with exceptions in each, are up to their elbows in corporate PAC money during campaigns for office.
Ms. Jones concludes “This pathological pursuit of political power at the expense of the people must stop,” We need candidates who run on a campaign of putting people, not corporate interests, first. More importantly, they then need to govern that way. For congressional candidates and people running for state legislatures, that means, first and foremost, abolishing the illegitimate rights of all associations by passing and ratifying an amendment to the Constitution. If the Framers had intended associations to have rights, they would have said so." Sarah Jones is a White House correspondent for PoliticusUSA.
