You mean businesses power over government? If you have a small government, large companies could use much more dirty tacticts to crush smaller businesses.

Kind of like how big government crush small businesses all the time by forcing way too much regulation and taxes on smaller business and turns a blind eye towards big cooperations since they are funding a lot of people who are in the federal government.

Big corporations love big government because they can buy the politicians out and force them to rewrite laws to make sure they keep their monopolies and they stay in control. Why do you think all the big corporations and people from Wall Street are funding Hillary?

Big government, small government, doesn't really matter. Big companies will find a way to make their influence known. Big government, try to steer legislation, small government, scare smaller competitors away.

What matters is how your society is structured, the size of government is a bit of a stupid metric to go by.

The size of government does not simply mean how much it spends.

It means how big of a role it plays in all areas of public and even private life. That is what people mean by small and big government.

Also Capitalism is not going anywere when I know many young my age go #capitalismsucks...

While drinking a Starbucks Chai Latte Snapchatting on Iphone 6 lol

I do know there are a lot of people who go #capitalismsucks in full hypochrit mode, but I'm a full blooded Marxist, so you won't hear me say it because it's fashionable (and frankly, we have so many good local barristas in my town, there is no reason to ever set a foot in Starbucks ;))

At least you are true.

Most I know are from wealthy famalies and will likely get a cushy coporate job as they have connections and make six figures and be a part of the system they rail against. 

He didn't say capitalism sucks.

It doesn't. I'd be lying to myself if I said it's worse than the likes of socialism or any other system. However, with the current condition it is in, capitalism is allowing companies to find exploits, avoid taxes, and cheat the middle class.

Edit: By capitalism, I'm referring to the first world's economic system. It hurts me when I see that companies like Apple, Google, Samsung, and others do everything they can to avoid taxes and gain as much profit as possible

Don't be a tool. Ireland can only claim taxes upon the amount of profit have made within Ireland. Apple avoid taxes from all other EU countries and only pay Ireland for taxes on profits from within Ireland. They then say to other countries that they are headquartered in Ireland. If they were based in Germany or Belgium they would do the same thing.

It's not a small nations fault. We have low corporation tax because that's the way we want it. But again, our rate of tax is irrelevant. They pay the 12.5% on what we can claim....... If other countries don't like it, then they should lower theirs. Apple are abusing multinational agreements. While other nations try to bully Ireland because of it. If we increase our rate of tax, our indigenous small local companies could never compete, because we are a small island nation. 

Then there are those who say Ireland are the only ones with such issues. Hahahahaha! The USA are the biggest deal makers of any country. 

Could you not believe the useless propaganda fed to you please. It's just plain silly. If you don't like how it is being unemployed in Ireland, try another country, where you get nothing! You are literally whining about getting a free education and how you get unemployment for free and help too up skill. Also your "technical" unemployment statement is completely false and something that SF (the political IRA populist filth) would utter which is absolute nonsense. You were still being paid unemployment, a social welfare payment, so you were on the live register. 100% and I am sure of that. 

Fyi, it took me 2 weeks at 3 hours per week to do ecdl. If you were unemployed, and getting free money, it's not really within your remit to be whining about being too good for the education provided. You need to take a deep breathe, step back and realise that you are deepening the Irish stereotype of wanting everything for free while whining about it. You have exaggerated beyond belief above and you have ranted your sweet hatred for your country. I on the other hand love my country, I think you should be happy to be handed free money when you were unemployed while in the USA you'd be homeless and handed nothing. And if you couldn't get a job, do whatever they say to keep your free money. And NO ecdl doesn't take 6 weeks. And if you didn't like it, stop taking the dole or get a job!! Either that or enroll in college, claim back to education allowance and get a free spring board scheme. Let me guess? You'll exaggerate about that too and claim some kind of nonsense. Makes me furious! The only thing wrong with your story above is that they gave you money for doing nothing and then offered a free education course to you, and you didn't appreciate it. You wanted to sit at home playing video games!!

You're an anti Irish idiot. Just unfriend me seriously. You have no idea what you're talking about. Ireland can't possibly claim profit from other eu nations. It claimed that small figure as 12.5% of profits made in Ireland. They CANNOT do the same for profits from other eu countries. Apple are abusing multinational tax agreements. If they weren't in Ireland, they would be doing the same in Germany. If you actually knew anything about this rather than quoting an anti Irish, British paper (you idiot) you'd know that. Also you'd know that Apple were in cork before our low Corp tax and when they were a tiny company. 

Disgraced at your country? In the same illiterate way, I could make the same statement about you as an individual. You traitor. Go hate our brilliant little country somewhere else! You believe those who would drain our country dry and have us back in the fields. Idiot! Unelected European Commissioners. 

And the the worst thing? Every country has the same situation. Even the USA with Irish Giants CRH. CRH pay little to no tax in Ireland and employ 75k people in the USA. But again, you fall for the anti Irish nonsense. You are what is wrong with Ireland. The reason we need a low tax rate. Because people like you have no confidence and think they are only here for the tax rate! Dickhead! Next time you want to open your mouth and bad mouth your own people, realise that you offend my kids, my wife, and your own family! Traitor. And one that was treated well while unemployed and still manages to whine! Lazy, Whiney traitor! If you grew up anywhere else, you would be nothing, with no laptop, no broadband, no education, no dole and nobody would hear your whining for more free stuff. You are not entitled to anything. You are more than free to pay the Irish state back for your free education, the piles of unemployment you received, the children's allowance your parents received for you, the subsidised travel, and all the other free shit they have given you through tax payers over the years. Then you can whine freely. Hypocrite.
