Reply To: Chometz Now – Where May We Buy it?

I think that is a governmental law, because it only applies to real estate, which was the essence of taxes then. Even if you are correct, you stated that the officers of the corporation, would have to do a kinyan. So, who owns the inventory?
I wish we could go through each part at length, but that is not likely to happen. I only commented, because I thought it was being said that a corporation, owns the inventory because dina demalchusa.
