If you believe like Romney that Corporations are people then wouldn't unions be people too?

Come to think of it what would prevent any entity comprised of people from itself being a person? Say like a middle eastern religion? Or an abortion clinic? Now I know conservatives are going to say I'm nit picking, but that's the problem with citizens united. it's a slippery slope when a person says business is a person because it has people in it.

    Romney's point was that you cannot demonize a corporation merely because is is a corporation.

    Both corporations and unions are comprised of people. I could sit and recite stories of corruption all day long or I could tell you about the union I work with (I am a manager) that works to keep quality and wages high.

    The fact is that a corporation or a union is not make it evil, it is the actions of the people in the organization.

    Not to be confrontational and I have always totally agreed with "what's good for the goose is good for the gander", but I must point out that of the examples you provided, including the unions, only one produces anything. The others all just consume. Yet, it's the producers that are demonized.

    I think that the ACLU is a large organization of lawyers, that CNN is a large organization of journalists, that the AFL-CIO is a large organization of laborers, and that a corporation like AMR (American Airlines) is a large organization of business people.
