Really? I sure haven't seen it from Richard Grossman, or anywhere in that tedious movie The Corporation. The hero of the latter is an enlightened capitalist.

I haven't seen the movie so I can't comment on that.
Richard Grossman is one person. Even people within his loose-knit organization disagree with him.
The point is to have a socially large healthy discussion about the core capitalist institution of our time, not turn it into yet another leftier-than-thou zero-sum argument about what constitutes the one true political path beyond capital. Imagine today's instant gratification leftists arguing with abolitionists in the 1820's: " it'll never work as part of a social movement and it won't bring about the revo."
