(33 posts)56. One cannot be enslaved if one does not participate
We the people have the power to fight back. Corporations cannot stay in power unless they have our money why give it willingly for something one does not really need? Yes I understand the need for them for oneâs job but are you paying for it or is your company seeing that they are the ones making it a job requirement?
It is difficult to fight back via the ballot and armed insurrection is frowned upon however one can easily fight back every time they spend money.
It is up to us as individuals to fight back and if you are not willing to fight back every day, then you are nothing more than a willing slave to the corporations.
