The "reward" for following what is right, should be the fair and reasonable results than any common person should come to expect from society and not something special.  Also, following the rules or rule of law is not always the same as doing what is "right";  ask Rosa Parks.  It is the duty of every American to resist bad laws and their effects when the law infringes upon their Rights.  Similarly, the rules imposed on industry by standarization which have been raised in recent months on thses forums can and will inevitably work to the unintended detriment of some otherwise fine and fair businesses which is why I resist the moves to regulate our industry on the state or federal levels. 

  On the other hand, giving corporations rights and privileges above those shared by the Common Man is simply wrong.  The entire sweeping scope of changes since about the 1960's in the judicial system whereupon courts recognize corporations as individuals with the same rights as those of Natural Beings is insane, inane, stupid, criminal and dangerous.  Nowhere within the first principles of Natural Law and Natural Rights can you, I or anyone extrapolate an equal right of an artificial, constructive, state-licensed, franchised, and indemnified system like a corporation to have rights equal to that of a 2-year old girl or 90 year old man (or anything in between).  It flies in the face of Common Sense and is indefeasible.  These commercial entities are authorized to be created under State statutes and did not exist before the 1900's.  Their shareholders (owners) and officers are held harmless by the Citizens of the State in which the corporation is registered (incorporated) for all acts except the grossest of negligence and malfeaseance (see Enron).

  Some things to consider.
