Sorry, but corporations are not people, they are entities with agendas. Individual people generally cannot have the same sort of resources and authority that corporations do.

Of course, a corporation's purpose is to pool resources to engage in an activity more efficiently then someone operating independently can.

Entities don't have agendas. The people who created, and operate them, do.

An entity created by people does have a specific agenda and when it grows into a huge corporation, there is nothing individual about it. Romney seemed to be talking about the corporation being a person rather than the individuals that run it.
