25. Great idea - we also need to remove limited liability
It's the fact that "passive investors" can rake in the profits when a corporation is doing well, but are not responsible for the damage that the corporation causes, that is a lot of the the problem.
Ending "Corporate Personhood" would get rid of a lot of the exemptions that corporations get from case law, but ending limited liability will ensure that the owners of the corporations - the shareholders - will have a financial incentive to make sure the corporation isn't committing illegal acts that would potentially make the liable for damages.
