Corporatism and Socialism Destroy Democracy
-
Extract from a fictious conversation
It was thus that I related in brief how capitalism and democracy had been corrupted by the ingress of the phenomena of corporatism.
"Corporatism took over the American Democracy Captain. It happened slowly in the last half of the 20th century and by the end of the 21st century the United States of America no longer existed. Like the rotting door of imperial Rome the capital of the UnitedStates fell without a fight. The leaders and rich of the United States had long before sold out the nation.
In a nation like the U.S.A. individuals became displaced politically by the concentrated wealth production phenomenalities of corporatism, and a small worlds network of people and families owned the vast majority of the shares of these corporations that became global while the vast most working Americans were also employed by these same corporations; people were politically cowed to silence lest reprisals for making non-corporatist political statements ensue. Public awareness of political philosophy was reduced to just two extreme establishments of corporatist neo-democracy and socialist neo-democracy. Because each political form was based upon collectivism each sought to nihilate real democracy, real free-enterprise, real competition and real individualism. Many of the rich were unaware of how corrupt they had become in their pursuit of global wealth. The rich with established economic placements netted the vast majority of prosperity concentrating wealth as never before in world history. The wealthy and their quest for more wealth realigned politics increasingly into corporatism and away from Democracy. Democracy as an actual political means was repressed and dissent to corporatism or socialism was labeled as communist/leftist or right-fascist.
In getting rid of democracy the wealthy need not have any obstructions to corporatist instead of national interest. Nationalism was ridiculed as

Gary loves his long rambling essays, that he does not bother to reply to when one makes a rebuttal or follow up post.
The thing is with Economics is that truth can only be observed through data collected. All else is informed speculation and educated guesses. A person can hold a doctorate in Economics and yet hold a totally different view than his colleagues.
