The legal concept of corporate personhood kind of says otherwise
- GavinMcG 8y agoThe legal concept of corporate personhood demonstrates the issue.
- ben_w 8y agoCorporate personhood looks like a legal fiction of convenience to me, making contracts, accounting, and responsibilities/obligations etc. easier. Corporations can’t be called up for jury duty or conscripted into military service, they can’t vote, and they don’t need to exist for 18 years before being allowed to take out a line of credit.
- d4mi3n 8y agoThe law can be whatever it is, but that has no bearing on the nature of an organization outside of incentivizing certain kinds of behavior. A business is an organization that needs to make money to survive. Such an organization will find ways to make money, or cease to exist. No amount of law will change the nature of this dynamic.
