CORPORATE STRUCTURE: Anatomy of the Super Human
by Occam's Razor
lex parsimoniae, translating to law of parsimony, law of economy or law of succinctness, is a principle that generally recommends, when faced with competing hypotheses that are equal in other respects, selecting the one that makes the fewest new assumptions.

The Simple View
Corporations are collectives of individual, living human beings. From the owners to the lowest skilled worker.
Each of those of those biological persons already has equal protection under the constitution, an equal voice, a unique and valued vote, etc.
Granting a corporation personhood, able to "speak" in addition to the voices of it's directors confers the resources of that corporation, and thus it's power and influence to an elite few, giving them in effect unequal power, (access to) representation, and by default creates a second class citizen out of anyone that isn't a corporate director or majority owner.
The argument that Corporations need to be classed as citizens in order to own property, sue and be sued, etc is a non starter. WE write the laws, and all laws written should support the constitution which clearly states that it's existence is to preserve the power of the People. Creating a legal structure that allows these PRIVILEGES to corporations without recognizing them as "People" is well within the abilities of the lawmakers and in keeping with the protections afforded Us in the constitution and bringing a natural wall of separation between business and state.
The natural result of allowing "corporate personhood" to extend unencumbered into the political process is the creation of a remote controlled person capable of exercising super human influence, super human representation subjugating Our merely mortal representation.
On philisophical grounds, the corporation cannot be considered a person, as a person has a definite expiration date (definite as in definitely finite). A person cannot, even in principle only, live forever.
This is NOT a partisan issue. This is a PERSONal issue for each and every one of us.
How any one can claim to be a patriot and not fight of the simple principle of jealously guarding their protected rights to equal representation, to the exclusivity of being a living person of singular consciousness... is beyond me.
Strip away all your emotional arguments, party loyalty to ideology (need to follow the script as they define the issue for you)... take it to it's simplest functions... and yours as a Person/Citizen
