a.) ace:
analogies between corporations and a babysitter are false from the outset.
b. general:
in what i wrote above, the key was that there is nothing to this pr move on the administration's part. the economic ideology adopted by the right is the explanation. loquitor restates one of the implications of that ideology.
speaking of loquitor: stakeholder is a better category than shareholder. with stakeholder, it is a bit more difficult to fall into the illusion that corporate activity is private in any meaningful sense of the term. if you do not accept the premise (that corporate activity is private), then (obviously) your argument does not fly.
also: i didnt make a direct argument about whether this sort of issue should or should not be addressed at the regulatory level.
i simply said that it would not be addressed at the regulatory level by the right.
