Yeah, that and also you can look at how nation-states behave.
Everything in life is modular, they are already corporations.
Like you have some kind of LEGO blocks, one thing made of them is called a corporation, another such thing is called a nation-state. If you attach blocks to the former to make it same as the latter, it'll behave the same too.
This is also the reason I'm skeptical of any liberal ideas of the "let's vote in the party that will be good , nice and make laws for the state to be always good , nice". If the state is made of the same blocks and you've just glued a paper with some letters on it on the outside - obviously nothing will change in that regard.
EDIT: Also notice how Trump, Vance and others do not behave as if they've suddenly won everything and are going to institute fascism right now and kill all they don't like. That's cause they understand very well that they've only been voted in. It is an event in their favor, but the structure is not going anywhere. They'll just make it a bit closer to what they want. A bit. Maybe. Anyway, the structure itself is much more complex, nameless and I don't know shit about it.
I'd rather give us all the right to arm ourselves with anything we want and carefully consider what the state and the corporations and such are offering us to do, not obey with our heads down under the threat of violence. Sadly that kind of bright future requires a process I can't fathom. Probably an evolutionary, not revolutionary one. And of course not a reformatory one, that's the stupidest variant possible yet so many people believe in it.
This is also called distributism in Catholic political ideologies, and before I'm labeled as fascist, the whole point of distributism is about humans being weak and flawed and power having to be distributed. It's Christian, but the opposite of fascist (which would be that humans are weak and flawed and thus only strength and life at the moment matter). Traditionalism\progressism and such are literally not the subject of that ideology. Just how to avoid power of one person over another as much as possible, considering the Christian postulate that humans are flawed and weak and no human can be entrusted power (I mean, at the same time they have a pretty hierarchical structure since Pentarchy and before, but that's been contested since then and the hierarchy has failed to ever make all its opponents heretics).
