Corporate isn't a useful term of division nor a guide to policy. If say Maine lost their mind and decided to try to autarkize their state government they would wind up just running things far less efficiently from effectively a neurotic a fear of companies as HP Lovecraft had of the ocean. The entire framing of "the people vs. corporations" is a massively overreductive us-vs-them clichè used in service of demagoguery. It is divorced from the reality of not only how the system works but even how any theoretical system could and would work. Instead it is about emotional flattery. The whole dichotomy is worse than useless. Like trying to divide politicians between who is a grey and who is a snakeperson, a nonsensical distraction. There are always conflicting interests in complex arrangements. Just look at the dynamics and all of the interests for and against the proposed "US made union manufactured electric vehicle subsidy".
