Ugh, I would love to see more companies bankrupted. How much more dynamic the economy might be if all of Volkswagens assets were put up for bid at government auction.

Adbusters magazine (credited with spurring occupy wallstreet with a solid meme campaign) tried to get inertia going around revoking corporate charters, stop acting like we don't have power, corporations are borne into existence by acts of government, we are not powerless to punish them for crimes against humanity (to be dramatic about it, I don't know what language would be appropriate for collecting location information for a million individuals without disclosure), but didn't see much traction about it.
