For IP if you wish.

This review, and this book, and all of the anti-trust blather, ignore the fundamental problem. It's the very idea of 
corporations/LLCs/LLPs, etc. as a shield against liability, along with the concept of corporate entities as persons.

Without those, we wouldn't have the huge entities that engulf and devour. and wreak so much consternation and havoc.

Some will splutter about the great things that they bring, but I think the time is long past to recognize the costs 
that come with it, and to reconsider whether they are a net good.
