Not really. You where talking about how its a bad thing that corporations can't be forced to testify because they have a protection from self-incrimination. But whether or not the corporation has any such protection, the people involved do have protection from self incrimination, and can invoke it in cases of corporate malfeasance that they where involved in. So what's the big deal here? Even if the corporation does nominally have such protection, whats the practical real world difference? When has it ever actually caused harm in the real world?
