Prometheus 6

Sometimes I think about the whole “government of the people, by the people and for the people” thing and wonder what happened. So far, the greatest damage to that ideal has been caused by the foolish decision to extend constitutional rights to corporations. Corporations are collective entities, and as such have more force than any of the humans they compete with. They simply have the upper hand, economically speaking. Giving them constitutional rights insures they have the upper hand politically and culturally as well.
