(21,768 posts)All that needs to happen is for the oil companies to raise gas prices before the election, and the incumbents lose.
And the giant food corporations can follow suit.
And the giant media conglomerations can hammer away incessantly at the incumbents.
We have let the corporations get too big and powerful, and now they control the country.
Corporations are more powerful than the government that regulates them, and they are more powerful than We The People.
We should have nipped this in the bud with anti-merger and anti-monopoly laws, but now I am afraid we are too late.
They will never give up their power, and we are not strong enough to take it back.
