You never hear conservative complaints, for example, when Monsanto sues a farmer for patent infringement simply for saving the seed from their corn crop (and Clarence Thomas, former Monsanto lawyer, wrote the majority opinion that allowed this broad definition of corporate rights). Conservatives can't find a right to abortion or gay marriage in the constitution, but they can sure find all sorts of rights for businesses.
When has an anti-lawyer screed from the right included corporate attorneys? It is always "trial lawyers".
You're right. It's one of many instances of hypocrisy from the right. I'm not going to argue your point. I think our government favors corporations to an insane degree.
Good thing I'm a libertarian.
