Why is business allowed to influence government, when religion is not? A long time ago the founding fathers recognized that allowing matters of the spirit to have undue influence in practical matters was detrimental. But same goes for matters of "matter". If religion can't influence govt, neither can business, or else allow both to influence, so they can balance each other out.
We need an amendment that clearly states the "separation of business and state". This would cover corporate personhood, money as free speech, and all the other depravities.
