by bill - 2011-10-11 ( life / money / employment / crime ) [html version]

"Richard Grossman says that Occupy Wall Street activists need to go beyond greed and corruption and focus on usurpation. As in – illegal seizure of power. As in – the corporation has usurped – illegally seized – power from the people. He quotes Thomas Hobbes as saying that a corporation is merely a "chip off the old block of sovereignty."

Richard Grossman on Usurpation and the Corporation as Crime.


UPDATE:

"If people want to go into business, fine," Grossman said. "But this law would strip away 500 years of Constitutional protections and privileges. No more limited liability for shareholders. No more perpetual life. No more Constitutional protections."
