“Corporations are legally defined groups of people.”

No, they are legally defined as something of a “virtual individual”, for purposes of the law. When you sue a corporation, it is a single defendant, treated like an individual person, you are not suing the shareholders collectively.

Of course, but nonetheless they are as I said — legally defined groups of people.

Corporations are people. They’re not cats, nor goldfish, nor filing cabinets. People.
