An Institutional Expression of Total Depravity

Randal Rauser concerning corporations.

[The corporation is] …an institution which is singularly focused on return on profits to shareholders. …[T]he corporation, which in legal terms is defined as a person, evinces the marks of a sociopathic personality, including a singular concern for self-interest and an inability to form and sustain longterm relationships with others.

From a Christian perspective the corporation could be described as an institituional expression of total depravity. Everything a corporation does, even the “good”, is tainted by its own systemic orientation toward self-interest.
