A more simpler approach is needed to get the attention of these capitalist free market pillagers. Let us use their system to show where the real power is...it's our ability to choose from whom we buy their products and feed their machine. We pick one company (not the strongest and not the weakest) that has sat their money on the sidelines. We start a national boycott and absolutely ruin them...no mercy till they fold. Some times you have to slaughter a lamb to make your point (not literally).
We are fighting the hydra, without new amendments to the constitution to establish new rights for the individual and new limits for businesses, whatever head we chop off will grow right back. (i.e. reincorporate under a new name, or several names, or get bought by G.E. or.....)
We might have the power to ruin a company. But that would not solve the problem. The problem is the political system that is controlled by monied influence. 1% buys their representation, 99% are left with the scraps.
