"A corporation is an artificial being, invisible, intangible, and existing only in contemplation of law. Yet executives often use it as a very real fortress to wage war on individuals, shielding themselves with limited liability while wielding unlimited legal resources." - Ralph Nader If Toray "executives abused this privilege by using the business to commit fraud, evade legal obligations, or engage in misconduct, the courts can 'pierce the corporate veil' and hold them personally responsible." — Freiberger Haber LLP #justice #law #liability #Misconduct #responsible #leadersarentbullies #HealthyWorkplaces #leaderselevatethoughtandconduct #truth #psycholigicalsafetyatworkact #liberty

Humans? Or animals? Or savages?" -William Golding When a person behaves in a certain way, either positive or negative, it is because they are willing, able, and allowed.
