The Occupy Boston General Assembly passed the following proposal on February 4, 2012:
Occupy Boston resolves to stand in solidarity with Occupy Wall Street’s demand for “an Amendment to the Constitution to firmly establish that money is not speech, that human beings, not corporations, are persons entitled to constitutional rights, and that the rights of human beings will never again be granted to fictitious entities or property.”

GOOD LUCK!
Furthermore, insofar as corporations are a means to limit the liability of those incorporated, the corporations themselves should be held liable for slander and criminal behavior. If we can take away the freedom of a person for breaking the law, we should at the very least be able to revoke the charter of a corporation, confiscate and auction its holdings.
