Thanks for contributing, harpmaker!! LOL!! Loittle Hawk says a corporation "acks a conscience, a moral sense, and a sense of proportion. It seeks only to enlarge itself. It is also potentially immortal".

I submit that this is not inherent in the definition, legal or social, of a corporation. The corruption in individuals that leads to some corporations looking that way is human corruption. There are people and cultures which have made decent companies and corporations that cared about their staff and their customers and their shareholders alike. 3M, Gore Technologies, and the early Apple come to mind, Steve's egoism aside. I urge you to discriminate in the quest for correct causes and right targets to aim your rhetoric at!

The actual problem is when a corporation grows so large that it cannot communicate coherently and an individual can no longer feel he can communicate with the top. At that point, dehumanization occurs and all the ills of corporatism begin to set in.
