If I call your mother a cow, and try to milk her, that doesn't make her a cow- and it's crazy. I don't think making "rational arguments" about that is the way to go. When we called blacks 3/5ths of a person- that was crazy too. Sometimes the things people say are so stupid, you really don't have to dignify what they're doing with a rational argument- because it's crazy. Our supreme court is crazy sometimes. And clearly so are you. Corporations are not persons, no matter what the court says, and corporations don't have imaginary friends, because they are a fiction assumed for transacting business. I refuse to go to the planet of insanity, just because you want to go there with the 5 idiots who handed down this decision. In the fullness of time I know that I will be proved right- if rationality and common sense prevails. If this stands, and corporations assume more of the "rights" of human beings, we are royally fucked.
