Oh, but the issue is not whether we think of something as a "corporation" or not. After all, that's just playing with words.
The issue is, what happens if you decide you don't want to do business with that entity anymore?
In case of state, the punishment is prison and, resisting that, death. That is the part that libertarians object to, and it doesn't matter whether that entity calls itself "corporation", "mafia" or "government".
