    keep debtors and investors from ripping apart a company and then transferring the debt to the ones running it

    So instead we get “vulture capitalism” as an entire ecosystem of companies, doing this but with more diffuse consequences, by spreading out the bag holders far and wide (but always among the powerless). Fits like a glove with the general “privatize profits, socialize losses” strategy of wealth extraction we like so much.

    Corporate person-hood is a stain on humanity and the world. We should never have shifted culpability and direct experience of negative consequences away from human beings, ever.
