Wasn't there recently a city in the us that wanted to give corporations the right to vote? Or was that satire too?
Not satire, but the City of London has done something similar for a while. The thought process is you might not "live" there but you use it's infastructure and facilities while at work. Giving the employees of the companies the right to vote within the city.
"City of London" is the really small (like 2 square mile) area in the middle though isn't it? AFAIK barely anyone is resident there so it might make sense if employees got to vote.
