Corporate Personhood

I've had a few people ask me this, so posting for the benefit of the group:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Clara_County_v._Southern_Pacific_Railroad
Here's the link to a summary of the legal case in which corporate personhood was granted. Note that this wasn't even a Supreme Court decision per se, it was just an assumed statement in the header language.
I know a lot of us are aware of this, just want to make sure we're all in the loop as we expand our messaging.

I believe the biggest thing ending corporate personhood would accomplish is ending this silly notion of limited liability, which in turn, I believe, would go a long way to getting us closer to an actually free market.

You have the cart before the horse and it doesn't work that way........
The conflicts point inward and are quite convulted.
