should the word "corporation" in the first sentence be "[organization]"?

Yes, at least to be consistent with my attempt at de-politicizing the post :) I've corrected it. Thanks.

I wasn't sure what sort of posts were considered acceptable. I'm glad that particular examples have come up in the comments.

Do you think I should use particular examples in future posts? I could.

I think that as a general rule, specific examples and precise language always improve an argument.
