I stumbled on a quote that succinctly expresses what I was saying about
the lack of corporate morality. This is the head quote from Chapter
XIX of Niven and Pournelle's ``Oath of Fealty'':
They [corporations] cannot commit treason, nor be outlawed nor
excommunicated, for they have no souls.
--Sir Edward Coke, Lord Chief Justice of England
Sutton's Hospital Case, 10 Report 32, 1628
