Few things so foolish as the Gramps-style anti-statist

"To demonize state authoritarianism while ignoring identical albeit contract-consecrated subservient arrangements in the large-scale corporations which control the world economy is fetishism at its worst. "

Except that some people "forget" that "state authoritarianism" is usually imposed involuntarily upon all inhabitants of a huge geographical land area, with essentially no competition at all.
Whereas contract-based systems generally include very high levels of competition.

So, calling them "identical" is laughably false.
