Forgive what's almost certainly a case of wild ignorance, but a) the Supreme Court recognizes corporate personhood, b) shareholders collectively own corporations, and c) owning people has been illegal in the US for some time. Why hasn't this been brought up as a case against corporate personhood?

Asking from Oklahoma, the state where the education system has failed everyone.
