- Very minor point indeed. We all know that a corporation who does harm
- to a human being can be sued and there are cases where directors of
- companies are put into jail. But you and I know very well that
- `corporate raiders' do not commit murder when they `gut and run';
- that's simple economic darwinism: only the strong survive (unless, of
- course, some government intervenes to postpone the inevitable).
-
- Good attempt at the logic trap though ...
