I was being a bit glib but yes this is more accurate.

A person can be sent to prison in many cases either functionally or precisely for non payment of debts.

Corporations on the other hand in many cases exist entirely for the purpose of either taking on ludicrous debts and then dissolving what they owe into nothing via bankruptcy, or in Mitt Romney's case, exist entirely for the purpose of parasitically extracting all the wealth out of other corporations and then making them kill themselves via bankruptcy.

Its just a fun game for the wealthy, who massively personally profit off of it all, as they destroy the very economy and society they lord over.
