Usually this means they are anti-corporation, specifically the legal fiction that corporations are persons. To some extent I agree with this, since it makes it difficult to prosecute corporate officials for conspiracy, unless they are dumb enough to conspire with somebody not an employee.

But it's usually just an attempt to knock down the power and influence of corporations. Not a bad goal, in itself, except that large corporations have been the driving force behind most of our prosperity. Damaging their ability to function would have significant economic side-effects.

I said I agreed with most of his goals. :)

See my #22.

We seem to have diverging views on the virtue of corporations.

Maybe it's a, "Is the glass half-empty, or half full?" kind of call. ;^)
