PERSONS have a right to speech (and religion, expression, peaceable assembly, protest, and Redress of Grievance, as extensions of speech) because a Person can see an injustice in the world, and then express moral outrage, even IF that expression has consequences for that individual that that individual might prefer to avoid. CORPORATIONS have no such mechanism, as ANY action that negatively effects an ever-increasing profit margin is, BY DESIGN OF CORPORATE CHARTER, not only "approved of" but EXPRESSLY ILLEGAL.
