Yes, the song is beautiful and amazing and funny and true... but I just have to say that the chord progression is fucking TIGHT Roy. Loving the new song!
Excellent song and great topic, but at 02:43 Zimmerman should say/enunciate "Walmart" more clearly. Also, while most of us in the audience pride/flatter ourselves on our knowledge of news and 'current events', Zimmerman should probably provide a one-sentence intro. to this and other songs mentioning the "5 to 4 Supreme Court case ruling ..." or whatever. Makes it more accessible to a very general audience .. whom one might urge to vote ...often for the first time.
I think that "Corporations are People" is not a bad concept. If a person got millions of people addicted to opioids or poisoned a town's water supply, they would be thrown in prison, yet corporations are let off the hook.
I love this! ...The song, not Citizens United, which is the stupidest idea since the railroads bought a similar idiotic SCOTUS decision more than a hundred years ago. Gee, the politics in this country are like a bad science-fiction or fantasy movie: sixty years ago they had Frankenstein's monster, the Wolfman, and the Mummy... today we've got Dick Cheney, Karl Rove and William Kristol... "The THINGS That Would NOT Die!!!" (I'd settle for them just going away. Like to the Hague, for trial.)
That would make hostile takeovers a form of rape, wouldn't it? And since corporations are not really prone to pregnancy, I think almost all such cases would constitute "legitimate" cases of rape, too. But I guess that would be Biblically correct since it involves a rape victim marrying the rapist. Hm. If a company spins off an independent subdivision, would that be reproduction? If that corporation had never undergone any merger (forcible or otherwise), would that make it a virgin birth?
Wrong. They are subject to the same punishment: which part of "already criminally liable for corporate crimes in a personal capacity" do you not get? The draconian part is punishing every person in the corp., even those who aren't responsible for the felonious conduct--it would be like punishing every person in a crowd even though only one person within it was responsible for the felony. Yet the crowd has the right to protest, even if it may not be punished collectively for the actions of one.
Hey don't be putting corporations in a gender identity box. With a little litigation & some supreme court graft they can have a variety of corporate gender identities too. That would allow them to institute a corporate studies program that is mandated to be made available to all students including corporate students of all gender and corporate faith. But you cab bit disbelieve in corporate faith. That's corporate blaspheme. You need to go and worship nearly everyday for about 8 hours. BoA 4 Pres
You mince words to make specious arguments. Your conclusions are at once risible and hateful. You should be ashamed, but I doubt very much that you have any shame.
Only if you believe that every person in a crowd exercising their First Amendment rights should be punished if merely one person in the crowd commits a felony. Do you believe in collective punishment? Short of draconian collective punishment of the sort you propose, people are already criminally liable for corporate crimes in a personal capacity. The DOJ has long pursued corporate officers under Sarbanes-Oxley, FCPA, and anti-dumping statutes (e.g., 33 U.S.C. 1411). You are evil and clueless.
Still listening in 2023. Fantastic song.
2024, sadly still relevant.
Roy Zimmerman you are unique and such a brilliant musician!
Roy Zimmerman is the musician we wish we could all be.
The progressions!!
Nice song, Roy !
Great lyric, great melody, great train of thought! 'Citizen's United ' is the worst supreme court decision, ever !
Keep singing !...
That last line is a killer. Kudos for Roy!
Man, I had to listen to this like 8 times already. It's fantastic.
Fantabulous! Wonderful! Love it!
"Dow Chemical, are you coming to my birthday party?" Perfect!
GOLD! Another Roy.Z Classic. BUY Roy's music America!
Brilliant lyric and really nice vocals as well. Great job.
Yes, the song is beautiful and amazing and funny and true... but I just have to say that the chord progression is fucking TIGHT Roy. Loving the new song!
This is great!

If corporations are people does that mean corporate mergers are marriages?
If so polygamy is widespread even far away from Utah.
Since I have to as a person and citizen pay taxes then so should they !
still great!👍

Citizens United was one of, if not The, worst thing that happened to the United States.
I remember the election writing about it was very misleading.
RoyZimmerman I can just see you hanging out with bill maher
Corporations fuck everything that moves.
Weird Al gives his approval to Roy and his uncanny wit and superlative humor.

And since corporations all have the same gender...

That's just invective.
But you do see how your defective logic doesn't work, don't you?
What was stupid about Citizens United?
Drivel.
