Does the Economy Need Corporations? [No. 86]

People can enter into business partnerships without formally incorporating. Does society need corporations for a functional economy? Professor Robert Miller explains that as the economy grew with the industrial revolution, businesses needed a way to operate and raise capital on a large scale. The corporate form allows investors, large and small, to contribute money while relieving them of managerial responsibilities and liability. #law #no86 #lawschool #lawstudent #corporatelaw
