I doubt that there is any conservative organization that can boast a remotely comparable list of corporate supporters. CAPs disclosure is a timely reminder that large corporations are not, in general, supporters of free enterprise. Many of them love to partner with government to suppress innovation and competition. Excellent point!
The two words “excellent point” at the end are mine.
Government + corporations = fascism.
You are correct.
I remember reading that the leading chess players on the world stage in every conflict, war, world war, civil war and everything in between PLAY BOTH SIDES AND FUND BOTH SIDES it’s a win win except for us we lose!
Perfect example of CRONY CAPITALISM which is a polite way of saying government business corruption. This is not free enterprise.
