Corporate personhood
Corporate personhood is a legal concept that says corporations should be treated like people, and so have the same rights and responsibilities people do. This means that corporations can do things like buy and sell property, enter into contracts, and sue or be sued in court. It also means that corporations can do things like vote in elections, donate to political campaigns, or even run for office.
