I was looking around and found this
What are your thoughts on a corporation running for a senate seat?

Didn't he get knocked out of the race because he tried to have corporate sponsors?

It's nothing against Stephen Colbert, I was just asking.

Last i checked, corporations were fairly indecisive. And so is the Senate. Combine the both, and we'll never get anything done.

We should build a computer to make all the decisions for us, and then we just do whatever it says.

Why would a corporation want to run for office? They'd get just as much done, if not more, if the head of the business ran instead. Besides, how will congress meetings work? They can't fit a whole business in the senate...

So if a corporation won, then wouldn't each of its shareholders be partially in office?
