London invented the legal fiction called a corporation. Then gave its
corporation equal rights with humans. (As an aside, it'd be interesting
to know if the City of London Corporation, commonly called the Crown,
was incorporated first.)
    At this point it's important to differentiate global, City of London
sized corporations from infinitesimally smaller mom and pop
corporations. Because big boys at the top of corporate feudalism love to
hide the dirty details of crony Capitalism behind mom and pop and
pretend everything's existentially entrepreneurial based. Besides, big
boys believe it's not fair to force trust babies to compete against real
world entrepreneurs.

Francis Bacon revealed his dream in _New Atlantis_. He sought to move
beyond corporations to supranational scientism. So sciencey specters
such as global warming and covid can be controlled by a scientific
autocracy along the lines of these guys:

Oprah's a disciple of scientism:

    "And it was miraculous to me that before you can practically
    finish the requests, the answer has come back to you,"

    ...

    "I think we should be disciplined and we should honor it and
    have a reverence for what is to come and respect, because I
    think it's going to change in ways that are unimaginable for
    the good."

Far sighted Bacon knew it would take centuries for his vision to come
true. Should Trump singlehandedly reverse centuries of sociological
ratcheting it'd be enough to make Bacon "sing the blues" as they say.
Only the blues didn't exist back in Bacon's day - ergo "Flow My Tears."
