Then you must address the fact that SCOTUS is now adjudicating law based not on the law itself or precedents or logical reasoning, but how the individual judges personally feel the law should apply... which is why congress is hemming-and-hawing over it.

also, much like Soylent Green, companies are now 'people'...

SCOTUS has been adjudicating law based on how judges feel for almost 250 years.

Corporate personhood has also been a well-accepted legal practice since the 19th century.
