:banghead: Ya did good up to that point.
Stealing/theft from any business hurts everyone - it drives up the cost of doing business.
I said corporation, not a business.
The corporate privilege is being able to steal from citizens, business, banks, etc without recourse.
If I was approved for the creation of a corporation I could run up millions in debt, pay my self a good salary, pollute the ground water, and then bankrupt and end the corporation then I personally would have no liability. It was the corporation who did all the wrong doing after all.
Corporations are not all businesses. I view a non-incorporated business as an extension of my fellow citizen. So stealing from a corporation is not the same a stealing from a business. Besides UPS is a criminal enterprise that has engaged in extortion, fraud, conversion, discrimination, and those are just the ones I can think of off the top of my head.
If a non-incorporated business did those things I could get a remedy in the court and make the individual responsible pay. In a corporation you have to go up against a monster who had all sorts of money and does not truly exist. Corporations hurt people more than petty criminals do. Hell you can often shoot a criminal if they are in the act. But how do you stop a corporation?
