“Evil is sure to succeed when good people do nothing.”

Corporations are the bane of modern society. These legal persons have come to wield untold power and wealth, while controlling crucial systems on which modern life depends. Such legal entities have even successfully moved free speech, once found and protected in the public square, to corporately controlled servers that have thoroughly eliminated free speech. Luckily, we still have a legal system that provides ways to redress criminal acts, wrongs, and grievances. Unfortunately, the average small business/private individual cannot afford to take part in the legal system meant to protect them. Most corporations of size take full advantage of this sad truth.

One of the most insidious realities shielding powerful corporations is the corporate veil. This legal concept separates and protects the living, breathing owners of a corporation from personal liability, to include corporate actions and debts. And while the “corporate veil” can be pierced, it is very uncommon, with the courts having a “strong presumption” against such actions. Ironic that living people make decisions for lifeless legal entities called corporations, and yet remain mostly insulated from responsibility, in so many cases. It is no wonder that so many everyday people hold disdain for corporate bullying, which goes mostly unaddressed in any meaningful way.

But something has just changed in the last few weeks that may begin to shift power back to us commoners and small businesses. A small Lego business has become world-wide news, with an alleged valuable Lego theft having taken place at the hands of a big corporation. There are clips online now that seem to show someone from the big corporation flatly telling the alleged victim that they could not possibly afford to take this to court. The victim also alleges they lost their Lego store and life-savings to said big corporation. This is likely how things would have remained without the monetary power to demand redress. That is, until a well-known YouTube content creator (Reckless Ben) stepped in, shifting the balance of power in ways that may well change how powerful corporations choose to flex their muscles in the future.
