The reason we shouldnt count corporations as humans isnt that theyre bad, its that theyre simple. They do the thing they do with great power – if you need a car built or an oil well drilled, a corporation is an amazing tool. But being powerful is not the same as being complex. Human beings are complicated. In other words, if your goal is to efficiently tap the tar sands, you need a corporation. But to decide if tapping the tar sands is a good idea, you need to keep corporations out of it. Their relentless simplicity will combine with their wealth to overwhelm reason, science, love. Bill McKibben, from Oil and Honey
