This article presents a false choice: does the government or corporations rule America?

The truth is they have a symbiotic relationship with each other, and a parasitic relationship with the middle class.

Crony capitalism is the modus operandi. Bundlers get politicians elected. Politicians produce tax credits, tax breaks, tax loop-holes, and taxpayer-guaranteed loans for the bundlers. Rinse and repeat on both sides of the aisle.

Meanwhile, the middle class gets stuck with the growing bill even though our income has stagnated.

Congratulations! You win the kewpie doll!

The article concludes:

If you are a highly educated and evolved person, you know that there is another angle to idea of corporations as pet lapdogs. When humans domesticate dogs and appoint canines as “man's best friend” and make such a fuss over their lapdogs, allowing them liberties and giving them treats, who is really the boss, the owner or the dog?

Black Business Journalist, Tony Brown (Tony Brown's Journal) hosted an author in the 1980s who showed that the Federal Reserve is a tax farming operation.

The Fed creates money out of nothing—ex nihilo.

That fiat money is loaned to the Treasury, to spend on government programs.

The IRS farms middle-class workers to pay the Fed back.

What is "The Fed"? An ultra-elite group of bank owners.
