- Lazare 14y agoYeah, there's so much wrong with that article... Not only is he challenging the state vehicle code (which means, win or lose, even on appeal, it will lead at MOST to a revision of the California vehicle code), but as you say Citizens United does not establish corporate personhood. At most they've found some poor drafting in a state statute, but even so the most likely outcome is they'll be laughed at. The obvious route is for a court to say "sure, a company counts as a person for this statute but you didn't have a company, you had the incorporation papers, which is different". What a poltroon.
