You have an "interesting" way of looking at things Dave.
Corps are "teh devil from HE!!" when it suits your argument, but the only businesses in the country deserving of existence when it doesn't.
Your own article states that 60% of the workers in Seattle do not work for large corps, more than half. Again, I find your ideas offensive in that:
A. Small business and the right to become your own boss and a business owner is the foundation on which our economy was created. There is no denying this- economic opportunity for all and small business employment has been a cornerstone of our society and way of life.
B. These small businesses provide opportunity for many would not have a job otherwise. Corporations only serve markets they believe they can use economies of scale on to amass the large profits. To deny people the right to work for people like Apoppin at his sign business, their local florist, butcher, corner store, etc is repulsive.
C. Not everyone NEEDS high wages and benefits. I don't care if my son even works. He has our insurance, and I'd rather he spend his free time with his friends or girlfriend. He works part time because he wants to earn some of what he spends. I know retired people who work just to have something to do.
Again, while I'm sure you're a great modem tech, you're in no way shape or form qualified to be an architect of economies. Nor am I, but at least I understand there are other factors in play than "stick it to the rich guys".
Something you will never, ever do by the way.
