I completely understand, and corporate personhood is both insane and terrible for the vast majority of people.

But I think anyone with an education on the issue is unanimously against it, or they are a paid shill. (Koch Brothers, et al)

How would you define 'responsibility?'

I would consider someone responsible for something if they are subject to its consequences.

And if every educated person was against corporate personhood, we wouldn't have it in the first place. There are arguments to be made in its favor -- not that I agree with them, but the issue is not so simple or one sided as you suggest
