24. This is depressing.
I completely agree with you, that this is THE issue! But if only 10 people on this board participated in this thread, how the heck are we ever going to get the masses to pay attention to this issue?

I worry that it won't be till the corporations have ruined everything beyond belief -- no jobs for Americans, devestation of the environment, continued protection from lawsuits for their irresponisble behavior -- that people will finally wake up. We're well on our way there, but if we have to go all the way before they wake up, will there be anything left?

I'm sorry I don't have any better ideas, other than to support some of the sites you posted in your original post & to try to educate people. I've had little luck educating people. Most people don't know what corporate personhood is & when I explain it to them, they just don't get it or perhaps they just don't care. At any rate, they do not make a connection to how harmful corporate personhood is to our very way of life.

Arghhhhhh!!!!
