I'm not talking about small African states having the ability to dissolve corporations, I'm talking about the United States of America.  An American corporation would be troubled to survive a concerted attack on it with state power, just as the East India Company would have had a heck of a time conquering India were it not explicitly supported by the British Crown.

This is not an argument about probability - there is absolutely zero probability of the US government dissolving Exxon Mobil in the current environment.  I'm just saying that in a serious showdown of actual coercive and legal authority between the two forces Exxon Mobil would not win.  An easily forgotten fact behind the current corporate capture of our government is that it's most important aim is to prevent such a thing from ever occurring.
