Teabaggers don’t seem to get it. Big government and big money are the same entitiy.

The sheep are on a mad dash for the abyss.

not entirely true, Big government does have a set of rules and a way to appeal to those rules
when they are stepping too far out of line, big money has no rules, there is no supreme court of wallstreet no constitution binds them, a feudal corporate system running is much more frightening than any big government that i can imagine.

Yep, all true -technically. However, the lines of separation exist on paper mostly, much less so in actual practice. Lobbyists are only one example….

i’m not arguing that, i just see the flip flop from a corporate dominated system to a pure corporate system a bad bad increase of corporate power. more direct power for corporate powers without needing a middleman or needing to hide anything at all.

I think people really need to address the issue of a Corporate run Empire closely. There seems an inclination in modern thinking to associate Fascism with Nazism which isn’t the true definition of such a political structure.
A “Corporate run Empire” is indeed about as close to a fascist entity as one can get in the true sense of the word and I really am hard pressed to understand why so many people who are struggling are so quick to trump the virtues of the very organizations that will inevitably oppress them without constitutional or adequate governmental intervention.
