‘Corporations are people’.
Nah, I think he took care of that on his own. Might be a corporate whore, but blackmail was hardly necessary.
Until there is legislature or an amendment defining corporations as their own kind of entity I'm not sure there is any other way to treat corporations within the context of our current legal framework.
On the contrary, I’m unaware of any legal precedent or framework that could grant a corporation ‘personhood’.
One cannot be a ‘person’ without any personal consequences. I have yet to see a corporation sentenced to prison.
The fact that corporations can claim personhood is Mitt Romney saying they could while running for president, and the powers that wanted anonymity when distorting elections corrupting the judiciary, all the way to SCOTUS

Can a person who owns a company be sued, or can the company only be sued when they do wrong on or behalf of the owner's wants/needs?
I know the answer to this, I just want to see if you can follow the logical conclusion here.
Btw, Martin when talking about a company I am talking about a Corp. Not an LCC or Ltd.

You want to prosecute voting stakeholders? Fine by me. But they’d all have plausible deniability.
I’d set the law on any executives involved with say, poisoning a river.
