Something Americans aren't taught in Civics 101

[DonCoquixote]

15. true, but allow me to clarify

because I don't want you to think this is just me trying to bash Canada. The problem is is that multinational corporations are so big that they have the money to figure out how to break any system. After all, in theory, China should be a communist nation. However, they have big corporations, rich oligarchs, and so many cars that their air looks like an oil spill. the only difference between America and let's say Russia, is that their states are a lot more involved in the corporate end,, where is in America the idea of any government only any corporation is considered disgusting. However as China and Russia show the state one corporations really do not mind swinging their weight around, as frankly they are more effective means to keep the masses in control than anything Stalin ever did. There is an effective way to control people,but mix fear , greed and pride, and you will not have any need for scary men in trenchcoats and black vans.

Even anarchism seems not to hold out much hope because anarchism by its nature discourages large groups. When you have a bunch of smaller groups that may be effective in the short run, until the rich men figure out which branches they have to cut in order to make the whole tree fall.
