Well, I was pretty sure I wasn’t all alone out here…
So all the while where I’ve been ranting and raving over my own particular libertarian leaning beliefs, (namely, freedom is good, but giving artificial entities the same or greater rights than natural persons is a really crappy idea), I’ve felt as though I was off in the wilderness, way out from mainstream, and even well past the blue-skinned libertarians and the ostrich-and-dope party.
It gets pretty lonely out here, but at least I know that I’m not completely alone.
Why Corporations Are Not People, And The Unsavory Consequences of Pretending That They Are, by Mike Hoy (of Loompanics fame).
He’s got a 2005 copyright on this essay, the same year I started blogging, so I don’t know who came first, but it’s nice to know one of us has a posse.
Things are busy at work (and that’s a very good thing) so I haven’t fully parsed this essay, but we’re clearly in the same groove.
