Yeah, though I'm going to add onto that.
Why would we need "protection" from a corporation?
Is a corporation actually capable of forcing you to do something against your will? (Besides when it is granted a monopoly from the government?)
Has a corporation (unless enabled by the government such as in the case of the East India Trading Company (of Tea Party Fame)) ever declare war on a people?
Corporations do not benefit from killing their customers (unless they are Corporations that manufacture weapons in which case their best customers are often governments as opposed to private individuals.)
In the case of a great many people corporations pay them and with the wages they are capable of
1. Keeping a roof over their head
2. Keeping food in their belly
3. Purchasing Shit (often shit that they don't need)
The government on the other hand
1. Taxes people
2. while pretending to be doing it for their own good
(Is there actually any one out there that works and needs the government to protect them?)
Also corporations do not control the money supply (excluding corrupt bankers, but the government has long since enjoined them and is now helping them perpetuate the fraud of paper money.)
Governments have always been the entities that run around
1. Declaring War on other groups of people
2. Starving people to death (by trying to tell them what farming methods they are going to use.)
Corporation on the other hand, produce shit, and sell it.
Take a look at your abode.
How much of what you have in your home is produced by the government?
Everything you bought is produced by a corporation, and you need protection from a corporation?
Yes, there have been cases where corporations have behaved in dishonest, immoral and unethical ways, but ultimately people learned of these behaviors and demanded redress.
Government does not need to protect us from corporations (aside from the usual ensuring that the corporations are being honest)
Nor can government replace corporations (The Soviets tried that experiment and it failed, and the Chinese gave up after it became obvious that it wouldn't work.)
Protection from Corporations, hardly, I'm curious as to where we can find protection from the government.
The Socialists state that their ideal system is a system where the people own the corporations.
From a logical perspective it sounds much like a For Profit Stock Corporation.
I own shares in at least 20 different corporations, and yet according to the Socialists this is not their goal. They don't want the people to own the corporations
they want "the people" (as in "the right people", "their people") to own the corporations.
Socialism is corruption writ large. Whereas under a capitalist system any one with patience, diligence and hardwork can claw their way out of poverty.
Socialists desire for the people to own the means of production is best achieved by for profit stock corporations that are publicly traded.
Protection from the corporations?
Lol, God no, I want to know where I can buy more shares of these corporations to share in the wealth they generate by selling myself and other people shit.
My ultimate goal is to reach the point where I have enough shares that I don't have to work for another person and can strike out on my own trying to start my own business. Corporations are actually enabling that by providing a location for me to invest my hard-earned wealth that will return more wealth to me.
Though speaking of Liberals who want to "protect" us from corporations.
It has also struck me as weird that they are typically very rich. Buffett, Gates, Soros, Obama, Clinton, Pelois, Reid, Miller, Biden, etc. They are often in the top 5%, and they often own giant chucks of corporations.
Surely if corporations were truly evil, wouldn't these people not want anything to do with them?
Why is it that they hate corporations so much when in the public eye, yet have so much of their own wealth invested in them?
It seems to me like it is the Dogma of a perverse religion where the priests are allowed access to knowledge that would "corrupt" the lesser people.
These politicians don't want people to be able to purchase shares in corporations, but it is clear that corporations generated a lot of their wealth...
If owning corporations is so dangerous, why do they own shares?
If corporations are so evil, then how are they not corrupted by their connections to some of the largest corporations?
If corporations are so evil how do they rationalize accepting bribes, err, campaign contributions from them?
Why would we need protection from corporations and yet they don't?

These are the mysteries of the Church of the Democrats
to question is to commit heresy and blasphemy against
the Kennedys, Obamas, and Clintons, or
the saints of the Church of the Democrats
. Seriously man. this isn't good. you'll realize this one of these days. I'm not saying the ideas of liberals are bad. they are very good. The fact of the matter is, it doesn't work. we're going to lose rights over it man. when the government expands, rights get taken.
