We hear all the time from progressives like Howard Dean, Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, and others that corporations are the biggest problem that is facing the U.S. today. If progressives ever have full power of the U.S. government, would they abolish corporations?

Corporations aren't people, but abolishing free enterprise is not the way. The economy would be gutted.

Not really sure how corporations come under the definition of "free enterprise," but okay.

I've seriously considered it.

Seriously, do corporations have any positives?
