i think one small addition

  1. decrease influence of ~~bribing~~ lobbying
[–] solarbabies@lemmy.world 9 points 8 months ago (1 children)

abolishing corporate personhood would effectively do this, since that's the primary justification for legalizing corruption in the USA.

I guess, so the law at present seems mostly made up. Like, it can't deal with glaring issues without a precedent and what amounts to a long-winded ritual before significant issues are considered.

I guess I don't see why a corp can't be accountable like how some people who commit petty crimes are 'held accountable' (i.e. shot, killed, worked in labour camps).

Why not just add 1. Everyone gets free money and is happy all the time

[–] JohnDoe@lemmy.myserv.one 1 points 8 months ago

Yeah I guess if I could add free time and money and make it so everyone is happy I would add it.
