Corporate veil and unaccountability protects individuals involved in the corporation. This insulates executives and staff from many risks of business activities.

Is why the world is in such a mess?

Powerful corporations magically “make decisions” and destroy economies, communities, households. This issue raises fundamental and deeply important critiques of the modern legal and corporate systems. And it highlights the disproportionate levels of accountability applied to individuals versus corporations.

We see the manipulative nature of the legal processes. A system that protects powerful entities yet undermining justice for ordinary people.

The issues focus on broader concerns about systemic inequality, corporate accountability, and the role of the legal profession in perpetuating these imbalances.

Corporate Veil and Unaccountability of Corporate Executives

Today we have a profound difference in accountability between individuals and corporations. The corporate veil is a legal concept that protects individuals. Directors, shareholders and others avoid personal liability for the actions and debts of the corporation.

In essence, it allows corporations to function as separate legal entities. In many cases it shields those behind the company from the financial and legal consequences of their actions.

The Issue of Corporate Power and Accountability:

Powerful corporations make decisions with devastating consequences on the economy, communities, and households. The 2008 financial crisis (and the subsequent Wall Street meltdown) is an infamous example of this.

Banks and financial institutions made reckless decisions. They result in economic collapse, widespread job losses, foreclosures, and financial ruin for millions of people.

Despite the magnitude of the crisis, these corporations avoid full accountability due to their legal structure.

Corporate executives and key decision-makers directly responsible for these decisions, lack personally accountability for the harm they cause.

Yet taxpayers, ordinary workers, and vulnerable communities pay the price through bailouts or austerity measures.

The corporate veil serves to protect the individuals behind the corporation from the repercussions of the corporation’s actions.

(In reality, we’re talking about the individuals making the decisions hiding within the corporation, because the corporation is a corpse, a dead entity that cant think or make decisions).

This system may encourage entrepreneurship but inadvertently enable corporate malfeasance, irresponsibility and unaccountability.

It allows individuals within a corporation to escape liability. And those who suffer from the corporation’s actions are left holding the bag.

Disproportionate Accountability for Individuals vs. Corporations

Ordinary people that don’t have the same power or resources as large corporations, face a far higher standard of accountability, even for minor infractions.

This creates an extreme imbalance in how justice is applied across different sectors of society.

Examples of Disproportionate Accountability:

  • Criminal [in]Justice System
    Individuals are often held 100% accountable for crimes, regardless of the circumstances. This can include minor infractions such as traffic violations, drug possession, or petty theft. And the penalties can be disproportionately harsh, especially for those in marginalized communities.
    Mandatory minimum sentences and three-strike laws are examples of policies that hold individuals fully accountable. They often lack considering the context or the broader systemic issues that contribute to such behavior.
  • Financial Penalties and Repercussions
    When a corporation engages in fraudulent activity, environmental destruction, or financial malfeasance, the consequences are often limited to petty fines. And top executives don’t face personal consequences.So the burden of any punishment is often borne by shareholders or taxpayers… People who are least responsible for the wrongdoing.
    Disparity in accountability leads to a system where individuals face harsh penalties for relatively minor wrongdoings. While corporations and their leaders are often able to avoid meaningful consequences for systemic harm caused by their actions.

Is it any wonder why there’s a sense of inequity and disillusionment among the public?

And why so many people feel the system is rigged to favor powerful interests?

Role of Lawyers and Legal Manipulation

The legal system itself is a tool to protect the interests of the elite. They manipulate the system in ways that serve the lawyers’ own agendas.

The legal profession uses sophistry (manipulative reasoning) and obfuscation to shield powerful corporations and individuals from accountability.

Bates v. Post Office and Legal Manipulation:
Here the world saw the manipulation of witness statements by lawyers. And the legal profession using “technical expertise” to manipulate or distort the system in ways that undermine the integrity of justice.

Witness statements drafted by lawyers to manipulate outcomes to benefit the system. Both to protect the corporation and ensuring that certain individuals remain unaccountable.

Justice is no longer a matter of truth and fairness.

The UK Post Office scandal evidences the need to focus on winning…

Even at the cost of moral integrity.

The modern legal system is a tool serving those with deep pockets and huge resources to hire the best lawyers.

Courts are no longer institutions to seek justice and protect the innocent.

Use of Sophistry and Obfuscation:

Sophistry is the use of clever but fallacious reasoning, a hallmark of legal strategies that prioritize technicalities over truth.

Lawyers focus on procedural mistakes or legal loopholes to win cases. It’s nothing to do about any facts showing that their clients have caused harm or engaged in unethical behavior. (This includes banks, corporations and governments.)

Today’s legal system isn’t focused on justice. It’s about winning the case at any cost. And often results in injustice for those who lack the resources to navigate the system effectively.

We see it repeatedly with corporate litigation. Lawyers often use complex legal arguments to ensure that powerful entities escape accountability. Ordinary individuals are vulnerable to the system’s harsh penalties.

Corruption of Legal System and Corporate State

The system is created by lawyers for lawyers. It serves to protect the interests of the elite. This is the consequence of the corporatized nature of modern governance.

A legal system that’s become a tool to perpetuate a status quo. The elite (corporations, wealthy individuals, and politicians) benefit from complex rules and bureaucratic procedures that keep them unaccountable. Ordinary people face harsh penalties for minor infractions.

Corporate Governance and Public Harm:

Government bodies and public institutions function like corporations. They focus on profit, efficiency, and shareholder interests.

The interests of “we the people” is sidelined in favor of economic gain through corporate veil and unaccountability. Corporations now operate without meaningful checks on their power.

Governments, once supposed to be accountable to the people, serve corporate interests at the expense of the public.

Regulatory capture

Corporations now exert undue influence over the agencies meant to regulate them.

The rot within the legal system and corporate governance results in a society where justice becomes something that is bought by those with money and power. So ordinary individuals bear the brunt of the harm caused by the powerful.

Reclaiming Justice and Accountability

We have a moral crisis in our legal and political systems. The very institutions meant to protect and serve the people often fail to do so.

Instead, they protect the interests of powerful corporations and elites.

We demand corporate accountability. So individuals acting for and on behalf of the corporations become accountable for the harm they cause. Individuals in positions of power are responsible for the decisions they make.

We need people-centered governance to overcome corporate veil and unaccountability. When will the needs and rights of ordinary people become more important than the interests of corporations? We demand a system of “by the people, for the people” and not by lawyers, for the lawyers.

We do this by comprehension that all laws are legal fiction, and say nothing. DWM devoted his whole life to helping others, after his personal experience before the judge admitted the system is all based on grammar fraud.

Are you willing to take the time and effort to prove the fraud?

Or do you wish to continue to “pay and obey” based on fictitious grammar laws?
