In his book “Sapiens — A Brief History of Humankind”, the historian Yuval Noah Harari talks about the cognitive revolution, which he defines as the point as which “history declared its independence from biology” because human beings gained the ability to think about things that do not exist, such as Consult Hyperion. He says
Corporations do not exist in nature any more than Catholicism or human rights. These are stories. Lawyers are shaman who tell stranger tales.
Well, yes. Limited liability companies are, I agree with Mr. Harari wholeheartedly, one of our species most ingenious inventions.
