Corporations are collections of people making a living,
creating wealth by making things, creating jobs and
wellbeing.  Corporations are our friends!  If real power 
lies with corporations, then real power lies with people
working together to create wealth, which sounds good to me.
Far better this way than with real power being wielded by
those who create nothing but merely redistribute the wealth 
that corporations create, while destroying much of that 
wealth in the process.  This seems to me to be perfectly 
compatible with libertarian ideals.
