The gap between reality and ideality is a large one. The difference
between rational action and the way people and corporations
actually act is equally large. BTW, corporations coerce people now,
by means of their influence on government (eminent domain to steal
your property for a new factory, for example). I'm sure they would
only increase the level of such coercion, were they able to apply it
directly. Joe
