Is Every Stockholder in America Is Now a Criminal?

"Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction."

"The Constitution of the United States," Amendment 13, Section 1.

slavery
n.
1. The state of one bound in servitude as the property of a slaveholder or household.

The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth Edition

So if corporations are now "persons" and these "persons" are bound in servitude as the property of other, then wouldn't that make those others be in violation of the Thirteenth Amendment?
