minus-squareFishFace@piefed.socialcakelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down1·4 days agoYeah I did google it and you know, none of the sources said that the practice was abandoned because “it was effective” 🤔 They do talk about how the law around incorporation was changed, making it ineffective. Because the company officers could just recreate the company. Which is what I said… but sure, be snarky about it if you like!

Or you’re saying the incorporation laws were always ineffective against the corporate death penalty, then they changed them to make it… extra ineffective?
minus-squareFishFace@piefed.socialcakelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down1·4 days agoYes, revoking corporate charters was effective back when corporations couldn’t just reincorporate. No, that wasn’t “the problem” as you said. Hopefully we’re all on the same page now.
lmao how is that effective? “oh no, we’d better write the charter out again boo hoo”
