corporate personality
It seems to me that if the legal fiction that a corporation is true, then that person has a psychopathic personality and any such concepts as responsibility is meaningless to it.
They certainly pay lip service to it and the members of the corporation in many cases are genuine about it, the nature of the beast however means that in practice it can only serve its own bottom line by what ever means is at hand and destroy any thing that gets in its way.
In the end the Leviathan principle seems the only thing that can be useful in taming corporations, i.e. government institutions that are large enough to curtail them and are answerable to the people. This seems to be regarded as a heresy even amongst the most radical, but what else? expect a psychopath to do the right thing?.
