Societie's rights trump those of any individual. And I say this as a hard core existentialist-lol. And I am a Sartre existentialist not a Kirkegard existentialist.-lol Society has not only a right, but indeed an obligation, to look out for the vulnerable. Society is sort of a tribal of elders making decisions for the good of the tribe. Charles Dickens child sweatshops of the 1800's England epitomizes why society has to watch out for sociopathic corporations and selfish individuals. I am not casting aspersions here, corporations by their very nature are sociopathic, and necessary and some people are selfish. Selfish people want the protection of society, but not the obligation!! Society has to make them mind-lol! So society has to provide the conscience for corporation, but even handedly, and so regulate corporations accordingly; and socieity should tax the amounts that are in the best interest of the society as a whole. Indeed, it is societies integral right and obligation.
