> Companies don't have violence and only have rules in a limited sense. E.g. a company can't lock you in a box for failing to give it some of your money

Companies certainly do "have violence" and certainly have locked people up in the past. The only thing keeping large corporations from doing this now is the state.

In the article, the author puts forth the problem with the Great Leap Forward: large central authority being disconnected from those starving workers. That's a problem large, centrally planned, corporations face.
