If corporations are now people, they should have tongues to stick out, eyeballs to roll, and wrists to shackle. If they don't, they aren't people -- even less so than fetuses, which aren't recognized as people until they are out of the womb and breathing.
Oh Henry?? Oh No!!!!! I don't eat any of that stuff these days, never did really eat much of it TBH, but I did used to like the Oh Henry. And Butterfinger. And prolly some other stuff...
If a person gets sued they have to appear in court themselves, you can't send a representative. So I'm fine with corporations being people. A corporation is a non-physical construct, so any time a corporation gets sued it should be held in contempt of court anytime a lawyer appears without the person present and then tried in absentia without the lawyer getting a say until they can get their client to show up.Catch-22 bitches, you know how you can depersonify corporations? By appearing in court! Hah!
Your brushstrokes are too broad here. I live in Ghana and know that many if not most of the children here working in cocoa are are doing what farming children are doing around the world, including in the US - helping out on the family farm. It would be different if the growing had become industrial (as in the US) but nearly all the cocoa grown here is grown as subsistence farming.Those children are no more slaves than the preteen in Iowa who goes out early to collect eggs for the family to sell at market.
Oh you'll be made obsolete at some point, but you won't be allowed to enjoy it since all benefits will be cut and all savings or investments will have evaporated! If my assumptions about my pension are correct, my backup retirement plan is a drug overdose. At least I'll go out seeing impossible colors.
the good news is, after 24 years in the plant, I have worked nearly every position and my knowledge and skillset is without equal. They can't obsolete me, but they might just fire me when I get old.... :)

You'd have to make everything yourself from scratch in all areas, which is impossible, to be guilt free about what you consume
You'll need a pressurised container to mix the water and CO2 in, right?

I'm in favour of all antitrust suits against companies that have more than 10% of market share.

I'm not buying Godiva to pretend I'm a well-traveled chocolate snob. I'm buying it because those chocolate-dipped strawberries are the best.

As for me? I'm very proud to be a diabetic right now.
