You are obviously avoiding saying why you operate as a corporation and not a sole proprietorship, because that would destroy your whole argument that corporations are people. Romney is not even defending his gaffe, because he knows voters in general understand that a corporation is not a person, but is a legal creation.

I find it odd that a person who owns a corporation would think other people cannot make the distinction, and would become upset when the distinction is pointed out. It is no mystery.

Jim Robinson is the owner of freerepublic as characterized in a politico article and fox news article regarding this site recently. Jim is the owner. It is also a corporation. Face it, corporations are people and in most cases I guess 75 percent or higher, they revolve around a single person for myriad reasons. Legal definitions aside it comes down to the fact that corporations are people in the sense that they are not some mythical fantasy creature Even when it’s public to some degree this is true because stockholders hold the value either directly or indirectly via mutual funds, 401k, iras, ect. .

Sigh
