520 | |a While there may be several practical concerns regarding the practice of corporate lobbying of government officials, there is the more basic question of a corporations moral right to do so. I argue that group agents such as corporations have no moral rights, and thereby cannot have the right to lobby.

I end the paper by a discussion of how this argument applies to all private organizations, including public interest organizations. | ||
