    Yeah, kinda like that time Brian Thompson got shot, and the next day United Healthcare ceased to exist.

    Not saying that the general point of corporations doing more harm than people is wrong. Just that if you think that the corporation is just one person, I’ve got a bridge to sell you.



  • Never? Rockefeller literally bailed the entire US government out of debt.

    I’ll not put too fine a point on it and assume you meant “in the modern US,” as it’s trivial to point out how many times we’ve had a greater wealth disparity historically and globally.

    But even then, we used to literally have company towns that amounted to debtors prisons and any attempts to organize were met with firebombings.

    It’s not good now for sure, but it’s far from the worst it’s ever been.
