These are corporations which can cook books in order to hide billions of dollars, a few million dollars in political contributions would be way too easy for them to hide. Create a shell corporation, made all sorts of creative financial devices, and voila.

All these shenanigans would end up the minute any cabinet instructs the IRS that if corporations are "people" that they should be held to the same taxation rates as actual "people." Alas, all we see are corporations being considered persons in order to benefit from all sorts of rights and protections, but they stop being people when it comes to pay up their fair share of taxes to pay for those same protections and rights. Ain't that a b*tch....
