I'm working on efforts (at a local level) to get the amendment passed to end corporate personhood, but I think we've got a way to make sure it happens. Since corporations now have the rights of people, shouldn't that mean they get the responsibility too? So - a corp. poisons people with fracking fluid - if someone dies, charge the corp. with murder & if found guilty, it gets the death penalty - ended, dissolved & can no longer do business. Kill people on an oil platform? Same deal. Pick your corporate catastrophe- most any should work.
I bet if one case like this happened, we'd see the amendment ratified in all 50 states inside of a month.
