Absolutely, what do you think a corporate merger is?  One corporation
propositions the other corporation.  The do mutual due diligence to find
out if they like each other.  There is a closing dinner at a fancy
restaurant where a lot of liquor is imbibed.  Then they go and screw the
shareholders.

Then there is "hostile takeover" a form of rape that, like all rape, is
not so much about sex as power. Then there is "greenmailing" when you
find out how expensive inter-corporate intercourse can really be.
