I honestly doubt corporate entities were what Jefferson had in mind when he thought of inalienable rights endowed by a creator. Corporations are not natural human beings, they therefore have no natural rights. Any rights they do have come only by the consent of the governed People.
The Courts have upheld that corporations are persons as used in the 14th amendment. I think its time we pass a Constitutional amendment to clear this matter up. The amendment should make it clear that corporations are not people under the 14th amendment, and that they have no Constitutionally protected rights whatsoever. Any rights they do have will be defined by the Congress and the state legislatures.
