    Unfortunately corporate greed completely breaks the possibility of a libertarian society to me.

      Corporations in the wide sense are the central enemy of libertarianism. Libertarianism is based on individual decisions and individual responsibility, which can’t be delegated. I can imagine you don’t really want those, but this is less compatible with corporations than any other ideology.

      Greed is a basic incentive. Even (spherical example in vacuum) if you manage to somehow lobotomize every baby so that there wouldn’t be people able to feel greed, you’ll get those on whom it won’t work and you’ll get those who’ll reach the same result analytically based on other incentives.

        Corporations only exist to limit personal liability. If you remove the regulations that hold people liable, corporations won’t need to exist because the days of the barons and tycoons will return.

          This would mean no practical difference between the two for a person able to reason.
