If companies are persons. Should we arrest them? Tax them like individuals?

Corporations are taxed like individuals. The individual tax is the tax borne by the entirety of shareholders of the corporation as individuals. Corporations are then taxed again. They are doubly taxed entities unlike a passthrough LLC or sole proprietorship
or subject them to the death penalty in the case of gross crimes against humanity?
