Why not? Corporations are?
here is the thing: corporations should not be given first amendment rights, they are not human. the people inside the corp? sure! 100%. the corp acting as an entity? never. if they can’t be destroyed by the state for their criminal acts, like people can, then they should not have the other promises (“rights”) in the constitution.
I generally agree with your conclusions but want to point out that corporations absolutely could (and in some cases should) be destroyed by the state.
“could” and “do” are different things - the system is what it does. and what it does is treat profit as more important than anything else.

woosh Corporations are considered people in the court of law.
If corporations are considered people in the court of law how are they allowed to own other corporations? Would this not be slavery and in violation of the constitution?
Corporations are a group of people. Those people have the right to free speech, even when they’re organized into a corporation. A corporation owning another company isn’t slavery because the employees can quit if they’d like to. Slaves would be brutally beaten or shot dead if they tried to leave.
