A criminal is a person with predatory instincts without sufficient
capital to form a corporation.

Am I the only guy in this country who's fed up with what's happening?
Where the hell is our outrage? We should be screaming bloody murder.
We've got a gang of clueless bozos steering our ship of state right over
a cliff, we've got corporate gangsters stealing us blind, and we can't
even clean up after a hurricane much less build a hybrid car. But
instead of getting mad, everyone sits around and nods their heads when
the politicians say, "Stay the Course."
-Lee Iacocca
CEOs of large corporations earn 400 times what their workers make. That
is not what America is supposed to be about.
-Bernie Sanders
Corporate corruption gives al Qaeda, Hezbollah, and other Muslim
radicals second thoughts about messing with the United States. If we'll
screw our own grandmothers in the stock market, God knows what we'll do
to them.
-P.J. O'Rourke
Corporation, n. An ingenious device for obtaining individual profit
without individual responsibility.
-Ambrose Bierce
Corporations are neither physical nor metaphysical phenomena. They are
socioeconomic ploys- legally enacted game-playing- agreed upon only
between overwhelmingly powerful socioeconomic individuals and by them
imposed upon human society and its all unwitting members.
-Buckminster
Fuller

I know the Supreme Court ruled that corporations are people, but what I
didn't realize is that those people are assholes.
-Jon Stewart
I may be just an empty flesh terminal relying on technology for all my
ideas, memories and relationships, but I am confident that all of that,
everything that makes me a unique human being, is still out there,
somewhere, safe in the theoretical storage space owned by giant
multi-national corporations.
-Stephen Colbert

one.
-Katie Thomas
If figures of speech based on sport and fornication were suddenly
banned, American corporate communication would be reduced to pure

In the corporate world, sometimes things aren't exactly black and white
when it comes to accounting practices.
-George W. Bush
It's an incredible con job when you think about it, to believe something
now in exchange for something after death. Even corporations with their
reward systems don't try to make it posthumous.

O'Rourke

kill you from behind the corporate veil.

decision-making from the public arena to unaccountable institutions:
kings and princes, priestly castes, military juntas, party
dictatorships, or modern corporations.

This is a government of the people, by the people and for the people no
longer. It is a government of corporations, by corporations, and for
corporations.

When the modern corporation acquires power over markets, power in the
community, power over the state and power over belief, it is a political
instrument, different in degree but not in kind from the state itself.
-John
Kenneth Galbraith
