I can't watch this right now. Could you distill the premise?

Noam Chomsky is an intellectual moron, radical Marxist and hates America. I wouldn't even take the time to spit on his rants. I didn't even take the time to check out the link. Just as soon as I saw his name, I knew what kind of garbage I would be dealing with.
Huge swaths of Africa, Afghanistan, Iraq and many other parts of the world aren't being "swindled" by Corporations, because there aren't any. I guess we should all move there and live so much better than we live in the free world, huh?

Have you ever taken the time to read one of his books?

I agree that the problems with private corportations center around the lack of public control and transparency. As pointed out, this has a judicial cause (the specific application of the 14th amendment to corporations as legal "persons") and is not the result of a natural darwinian process as often defended by its advocates.

In my mind the greatest problem is that a corporation has far more legal rights than a natural person, and that it is, in essence immortal.

Sure. Besides, corporations, though considered as persons, have no moral conscience, "no soul to redeem, or body to incarcerate".

Not entirely. Then again, I don't take the time to read any crackpot books. I have read enough of his philosophy in his own words that can only be taken in one context: he is a crackpot, America-hating Marxist.
Now, if you want to give me a bibliography of any of his books that prove differently, I will be sure to read them.
By the way, I haven't read any alien abduction books, either. It doesn't mean I am totally ignorant about the subject.
Here is an interview with the freak, but is only the tip of the iceberg that is Noam Chomsky:

I'd think you wouldn't like him much, since he embraces anarchism and you favor greater state control and greater control in the hands of a global superstate.
