So are we moving to Mussolini’s or Franco’s Fascism then?

Big Media pressures Congress to change the laws as they see fit but that does not mean that the corporations run our foreign or domestic policy to a significant degree.

They certainly run trade policy - why is china in the WTO? Why are we allowing major corporations to essentially build china’s industrial base?

you don’t think big business has big government in it’s pocket? The way i see it, they work hand in hand with each other. Look at immigration. Do you honestly think that big corporations want the border closed? what about all those cheap janitors, vegetable pickers for big agribusiness and construction workers and nannies for the families of executives?
Now Paul saounds weird sometimes, but on that point, he is right. Special interests, including big business, own Washington. Little people like us don’t count.
