As soon as the federal government stops taxing corporations we can talk about not allowing them to have political speech.

Does the phrase "No taxation without representation" ring a bell?

Corporations are artificial constructs created to protect individuals from personal liability. Corporations only exist under rules created by the states.

Which leads me to wonder if the individual states can limit the speech rights of corporations.
