In my view, it's bad because there's no end to the growth of a company's wealth, and thus power. Companies are treated as individuals when it's convenient for them, and not so when it's inconvenient. As companies gain more and more money, it becomes much easier to commit crimes and abuse their power to gain even more money and even more power, and yet, the likelihood of them being held accountable decreases. Comapnies can commit crimes that would land an individual in prison, and yet companies are usually at most fined in amounts much lower than the money they earned committing crimes. This creates serious problems in society, where companies are able and enabled to essentially act as sociopaths with limitless power.
