The Supreme Court made a huge mistake when it ruled that corporations were individuals under the law. Corporations are too big to fail and too big to be held accountable. They are destroying democracy and the middle class. The Supreme Court is taking away our rights in the biggest overturning of our Constitution ever. Corporations are not people

The federal government is destroying democracy and the middle class.

It isn't corporations.

To clarify this matter for the Supreme Court, an Amendment to the United States Constitution is required:

Human Worth Amendment

  1. All people are of equal worth an value in themselves, solely on the basis of being human-beings, unconditionally and unexceptionally.

  2. A corporate entity, in and of itself, is not a person and, therefore, is not entitled to the same rights and protections afforded to a person as set forth in the Constitution of the United States of America.
