Romney Stands Firm: ‘Corporations are People’

Friday, 19 August 2011 02:05 PM EDT

Republican presidential front-runner Mitt Romney took a lot of flak from Democrats last week after he said that “corporations are people.” In a new web ad, the former Massachusetts governor sticks to his guns, Politico reports.
 
“Businesses are comprised of people,” he said in the video. “I'm talking about repair shops, and gas stations, and beauty salons, and restaurants. I'm talking about Apple computer, Facebook, and Microsoft. I'm talking about businesses that employ people.”
 
And what does Romney think of the attacks from the likes of Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz?
 
“It's really astonishing to me that the Obama folks would try and argue that businesses aren't people,” Romney said. “What do they think they are? Little men from Mars?”
