The platonic ideal corporation would be an entity that has no employees, extracts rent from everything, has no expenses, produces no products, and pays no taxes.

This platonic ideal is a parasitic organization that serves no purpose, but we've structured our entire economy around the endless pursuit of it in all sectors.
