Forum Post: Let's Say "Corpocracy" Not "Corporatocracy"

I suggest we use "Corpocracy" instead of, as I've seen, "Corporatocracy" to describe the corporate-dominated country (and world) we are living in. The shorter term is easier to say, gets the same idea across, and has a better chance of catching on in the media, and such.

Both terms have been used before. "Corpocracy," is, by the way, listed in the free online dictionary. www.thefreedictionary.com/corpocracy

The movement is great. Keep up the excellent work.

Can't we just call it Twinkle City?

I propose that we change the OWS name to "idiocracy".
