Forum Post: Protest Our US Government, Not Just Corporations

Don't protest corporations! Protest our government. It is badly broken and needs a brand new constitution that eliminates the political party system, the tax system, and the supreme court (currently with no checks) for starters! Our forefathers never envisioned such a disaster!

It is our government that has caused all of the huge profits that are abused by corporations. Profits should be subject to usury restrictions. Why should anyone make 200% and greater profits or more than $1 million?

exactly, you said it. All of those things. focussing only on inequality & greed, i.e. coming down on corporations, ignores that there is something fundamental in our government structure that allows this to continue. Just tweaking laws only appears to fix the problem in the short term, while causing an even worse crisis down the road
