Corporations are the only ‘persons’ it should be acceptable to subject to capital punishment.
If one is found to have behaved in a destructive or sociopathic way, its capital should be seized, socialised or auctioned off, and the proceeds primarily put toward remediation.
Corporations are more amoral than immoral, their undesirable behaviours are typically the result of the incentives they’re rewarded for exhibiting. It would also help if their involvement in the creation and policing the rules they’re expected to follow were severely diminished.
true and capital punishment is already a more fitting term for this than for executing humans
