You don't think corporations answer to you? I have very little control over my government (1 vote). I have massive control over my corporations (I give them my business, or I don't). And yes, the US is not the Deomcracy I want it to be. Not because we have never been there, but because we keep moving away from what made it great. National heathcare is one step farther away from what it once was. |
You have a lot of control over your government. That one vote you have and the one vote everybody else has means that the government has to answer to you. If you and other Americans dont like what a politician is doing, then you get rid of him.
You have little to no control over corporations. You have some control over what they sell, since they make more money if they make products that more people will buy, but you do not decide what their business practices are, where their money goes, or who the CEO of the company is.
