Corp Germ > Corp Seed > Corp Monster - 5

Fig. 1 History and Herstory

This series (Corp Germ > Corp Seed > Corp Monster, 2, 3, 4) points out that at the time of the founding of the USA, corporations were persona non grata in terms of their historical reputation at that time.

Nobel laureate Bob Dylan in his song "Slow Train" mentioned "Jefferson turnin' over in his grave".

One eligible reason for Jefferson saying that would be Jefferson's take on corporations:

"Jefferson lived long enough to see the beginnings, and he was very strongly opposed to them. But the development of corporations really took place in the early twentieth century and very late in the nineteenth century. Originally, corporations existed as a public service. People would get together to build a bridge and they would be incorporated for that purpose by the state. They built the bridge and that's it. They were supposed to have a public interest function. "

(Corp Germ > Corp Seed > Corp Monster). In Fig. 1 an example of why Jefferson et alia were opposed to them is displayed in the poster of a recent movie about the Dupont chemical corporation (a corporation willing to poison every citizen in the USA then cover it up).

Oil corporations have a similar history (New Climate Catastrophe Criminality Policy).
