I used to be anti-corporate, until I realized that
there are some corporations that do good things and
some that do bad. Merely being a corporation does not
mean they are necessarily "bad" or "evil". Heck, the
company I work for is incorporated. I know that they
do good things, otherwise I wouldn't work for them.

But, I assume you are talking about the worst of
corporations, such as the current Enron debacle and
Monsanto's crap in Anniston, AL. I think we need to
start thinking about corporations in other terms for
success other than their stock price. How can
consumers get information about corporations beyond
their advertising? How can consumers make more
informed choices?

I think we need something like a Slashcode driven site
where consumers can evaluate corporations and then
make those evaluations or scores available via XML so
that other websites can make use of those scores.
Kinda like the "Nutrition" panel on food products we
buy.
