Doesn't this mean no change other than firms taking a digital form via smart contracts and the blockchain?

So, no need to trust anyone cos the code reigns supreme?

We already live to co-create a world that's legally more tailored for corporate persons (especially Big Business) than real people. Can we really solve our systemic problems with the same Business-as-usual logic used to create them?

The Business-as-usual paradigm of Resource Control?

"Think of it this way. Large corporations today everywhere, but especially the largest ones in the Global North, are a destructive force, hostile to people, societies and the environment.

They’re nothing less than legal private tyrannies operating freely with virtually no restraint. Everything for them, animal, vegetable or mineral, is viewed as a production input to be commodified and consumed for profit and then discarded when no longer of use.

And to achieve maximum profits, costs must be rigidly controlled. That means the lowest prices paid for goods and services, the lowest wages paid to workers (below privileged higher management who reward themselves richly), as little as possible spent on essential benefits like health care and pensions, and increasingly little or no concern about the long-term cost of exploiting, plundering or even destroying the natural environment and the future ability of the planet to sustain life.

These issues, however recognized and grave, are for someone else to deal with later." https://bit.ly/39K9hWS
