>Corporations don't make decisions; they don't do anything at all. The people who control them do.

The people that take those decisions are many and have various roles. The aggregate of them, we call a "corporation".

Think of it like an emergent entity. It's not just a person (e.g the CEO) making a decision all by himself. It's the whole leadership, the Board of directors, shareholders, the financial and market condition of the company, it's history etc.

In your logic, people don't take decisions and don't do anything either. Their brain does.
