Superb, and fully agree! One fine-tuning to explore in dialogue: because of legal personhood, investors only have rights to a share of equity and a share of vote - which is distinct to turning legal personhood (the space in law of rights and obligations) to legal thinghood, the space of property.

This perspective opens a lot of space to make FIAT solid in governance structures, by including all stakeholders in voting rights independent on their financial relationship.

Enjoy your perspective. Would have loved to see you have this discussion with Milton Friedman (am sure you've seen his Free to Choose videos/book).

I’m honored you think I could keep up with Friedman in a discussion. I want to see more rigorous debate on the topic and think it will be needed to figure out the path forward from here.

Milton would likely agree but knows corporations and governments are playing the short/personal game behind the curtain
