A corporation differs from other voluntary organizations in that it is granted special privileges by the government. The corporate form shields the owners from personal liability, a special protection that individual citizens and most other voluntary organizations generally do not enjoy.

If the state can grant special privileges to those who choose the corporate form, can't it also impose special restrictions on how that corporate form may operate? If so, what is the scope of restrictions that the government can legitimately impose?

Thank you for your thoughtful insights on the topic at hand! I suspect that you have special background knowledge of the issues.
