I've been thinking about this for a while and wanted to know what everyone thought.

It's become clear in the last few decades that power is unequally distributed in our country, and so I have a solution to make things more democratic.  I think that Corporations are deserving of 'official' seats in congress and senate.  This representation would equal 1/5th of the new total - i.e., corporations would be given an extra 25 seats in the senate, bringing the total number of seats to 125.  I know that a lot of people think that five seats would be enough, but I think the corporations that have provided so much for us and are such an important part of our economy deserve equal treatment.  Perhaps one day the world will be ready for a full corporate integration, but I can't see that happening for at least 50 years.

In order to expand our economy, we need to give fairer representations to corporations, and end the pervasive sentism that is rotting away our society.

Title led me to expect one thing... content delivered the exact opposite.  I was entertained.  9/10


want more equality? then promote inequality! major world crisis solved. next up: hungry and poverty. u hungry bro? just eat food then. problem again solved.

that doesn't even..
why would u? o.O
is this sarcasm or what  Huh

that's how you fix the world apparently. take a problem, see how it relates to you, and apply it to everyone else.. one-size-fits-all.  Shocked

wow
this is the most opposite thing of equality I have ever read in my life Cheesy
altough I see your logic but this isn't equality, equality = 1 guy, 1 vote!

with this corporations could squeeze the people for their money even more because they now have the ability to make laws in the congress if you catch my  drift? Smiley

this topic is as ridiculous as this http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/12/11/ethan-couch-sentenced_n_4426722.html?utm_hp_ref=mostpopular

i guess OP would argue that he's more innocent because his family contributes more to the economy?

Annihilation is the best solution to war.

If you're suicidal, sure.  I think voluntary interaction is a far greater pursuit.

The most misleading title I've ever seen.
You're gonna solve this 'Problem' by giving more power to those that are causing all the problems?

I don't think any kind of legislation will do much good until the general public wakes up to the real problems.  I'd say spreading kowledge to the unaware masses is the best bet for change and equality from my point of view but that is just my 2 cents in the matter.

It looks like interesting idea because corporations could vote more free rules and less regulation, so they could employ more people.

Exactly!

Please...
We all know that would be impossible to regulate.
Yeah, okay, it would be hard. But that doesn't mean it's a good idea to give corporations a vote.

If it was one vote out of 125, what harm would it do?
Nothing, as long as they were not the vote that made one side win. Because if they have the power to decide if a decision wins or fails then they have lots of power. The bigger parties will offer their "help" to some of the corporations proposal in exchange for some support here and there. It's the balance of power, and it should absolutely not be given to corporations.

They have some common interests like money. If the other ones proposals does not really affect the others sales or products the risk is that they will gang together.
