The separation of church and state establishes the idea that when a powerful social organization becomes intimately involved in the political process, directing its activities and enacting legislation that furthers its interests at the expense of others, the result is harmful to society. The separation of corporation and state is merely an extension of that principle.
To achieve the separation of corporation and state, the following principles must be established:
1. A corporation is not a person.
- Individuals have rights, corporations have privleges
2. A corporations charter can be revoked
- If not acting in a way beneficial to society
3. Corporations can be taxed individually
- Based on harm done to society
4. Corporations cannot contribute to the political process
