>> i-node loves corporations and their 'rights'.

It isn't about "loving" corporations. It is just that corporations and their rights as you call it are what make possible economic progress. And they're what serve to give everyone equal footing. Without them, you'd have something akin to the family trusts of 130 years ago.

The reason I support the corporate form is I understand it, and I understand the other forms of entities. Thoroughly. The reason you oppose them is that you are confused by them.

While you see inequality as evil I see it as a natural by-product of success. And the corporate form is what prevents it from being more one-sided than it is; where ownership can flourish in the hands of ordinary people who make good decisions.

Some of the people posting here own stocks or do from time to time; it cannot be a totally unknown item to you.
