Government Power Plus Corporate Money Equals Corporatism
The AntiCorporatism.com blog that will answer all your questions about corporatism in the United States of America.
Reports are all over the news of retailers being warned not to “price gouge” products in high demand due to the spread of the Coronavirus. As with so many politically motivated laws and regulations, such efforts will result in unnecessary deaths and harm to victims of a crisis. Those who support such laws simply do not understand the basics of economics and markets, typically those on the political left, whether that be democrats or republicans.
For generations, manufacturing jobs have been fleeing the United States. The reason for this is unquestionably the ever-increasing minimum wage and the extremely intrusive regulatory environment government imposed upon the citizens and entrepreneurs of America. Millions of Americans, rightfully so, are very concerned that the medications and products they need every day to stay alive may very well be in short supply soon. The reason this is a real possibility is politicians’ unquenchable lust for power, and huge, slow to adapt and innovate corporations’ that desire monopolies to destroy smaller, more agile, although less affluent, competitors.
The result is an American population almost completely dependent upon other countries, predominantly China, for critical, lifesaving products and medications, and why America could face a much more deadly problem than the Coronavirus itself. Read more
The real threat of the Coronavirus is not the deaths it will cause due to illness, it is the countless deaths that will be incurred by the massive power grab sure to ensue. Power hungry and government worshiping Rahm Emanuel stated, “You never let a serious crisis go to waste. And what I mean by that it’s an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before.”
The Coronavirus is just such an opportunity, one that only comes about every decade or so, and rest assured all Democrat and many Republican politicians tamed by the Deep State are licking their lips.
How can one know this? With only a fraction of the threat from pandemics such as bird flu, swine flu, SARS, Zika, and on and on over the last few decades, politicians have used these events as an excuse to pass permanent legislation that would legalize both warrantless searches and due process protections.

The political Left in America are experts at linguistic jujitsu; they would happily sell Americans poison while convincing nearly half the population it is nectar. Herein lies the branding of themselves as “Progressives” and their efforts such as Obamacare as the “Affordable Care Act.”
Thinking takes far more effort than most people believe. The Left recognizes this and understands that many Americans are not just too lazy to think concepts through, but also the allure of using the coercive power of government to take from their neighbors is all too tempting.
The remedy to this problem is to beat the Left at their own game. The pool of presidential candidates in the Democrat Party, as well as leftist Republicans, can no longer be branded as they wish to be branded. The reality is that they are all corporatists, the quintessential term that will, in the long run, expose the Left as what they really are, but with only months before the 2020 presidential election, the brand of “monopolist” is far more easily communicated and nearly as effective.
Simply contrast the debacle and front runners of the Iowa Caucus; Bernie Sanders and Pete Buttigieg: Read more
Since the end of the Obama administration the Deep State Establishment has never been closer to destroying America, and the taste of blood it had in its mouth emboldened its efforts for eight years. Now that Trump is president, like a ravenous animal backed into a corner so close to killing its prey, the Deep State is clearly not willing to go back to square one. This places America in a perilous position, and most are clueless as to the collision course our country is moving.
The Trump impeachment is obviously the most visible front in the Deep State’s war against America. The notion of impeachment is now merely a tool to destroy a political enemy, no longer an option afforded to the American people for protection against a politician’s high crimes and misdemeanors. No objective person could draw another conclusion. From the fabricated and vulgar accusations of sexual misconduct by President Trump, to the Deep State funded Steele Dossier, and culminating currently to the hearsay-based Ukraine “crisis,” it is obvious we are in a fight for our country like never before.
Government imposed regulations limit innovation and protect big corporations from more agile and customer-responsive smaller businesses. Large corporations, with layers and layers of bureaucracy, simply cannot respond to market forces nearly as well as their smaller competitors. Flatter organizations with fewer layers of bureaucracy, on the other hand, can, and most often will, make common sense decisions quicker and more efficiently, endearing them to their customers. This is a much greater challenge to larger businesses that must seek consensus among many leaders before they can react to the needs of their customers.

Sounds like a bizarre question – but if one considers the reality that has emerged over the last decade, this correlation is clearly obvious and frightening. Reports of crimes such as human trafficking and abuses against children are not new, but the surfacing of the number and extent of powerful entities with global reach and their deep rooted ties to unspeakable horrors against children is becoming clear.
Consider three of the most powerful governmental and religious entities the world has ever seen:
The Catholic Church
The Catholic Church with its 1.2 billion followers is a powerful global organization. For decades, the Catholic Church has been exposed as a cabal of sexual predators. From Australia to Ireland, from Boston to Argentina, in every major country and in every US State, reports of abuses by Church authorities have come to light. According to the BBC, “A Church-commissioned report in 2004 said more than 4,000 US Roman Catholic priests had faced sexual abuse allegations in the last 50 years, in cases involving more than 10,000 children – mostly boys.” And these are just those abuses reported, just the tip of the iceberg.
As if this was not enough evidence alone, the reality that the Church leadership for decades, maybe centuries, covered up such abuses and even protected pedophiles in their ranks by moving them from one parish to another. Clearly, the Catholic Church was not only aware of such abuses as well as aware of the extent of the problem, but also worked to enable and protect the abusers. Read more
For what is a shock to those who are completely ignorant of history and current events, but not to those of us who understand what made America the greatest country on Earth, Warwick Rhode Island schools will no longer have sports or clubs come this fall.
For those parents who support free markets and fought against the current leadership in Warwick, and especially the children who will be forced into an even greater one-size fits all education system, true Americans extend their greatest sympathies.
For everyone else in the city of Warwick, you get what you deserve.
After years of Tea Party activists and good government organizations in Rhode Island fighting hard against the Establishment in the state, and warning union workers, parents, and all voters that their system of government is not sustainable, we see the result of voters’ blatant disregard to their warnings. The shortsightedness of the majority of voters in the state and others believing that if they do not vote for the Establishment their paycheck would be affected, the students of Warwick are the victims of their decision making.

With the advent of the internet, knowledge is now a commodity that is easily accessed and free. Although this does not correlate directly to intelligence and wisdom, it does make it far more difficult than in the past to win a debate by appealing to people’s ignorance.
Despite the efforts of government corporatists and the platforms that prop them up such as Google, Facebook, Twitter, network news, and Hollywood, these efforts alone will only postpone the inevitable – the intellectual dominance of the individualist.
So how, in fact, do the corporatists plan to win?
The long game being played by corporatists and globalists was never an intellectual fight, nor the battle they felt they must win to triumph over their conquest of those they view as subordinates. Instead, they have positioned their fight over the last few generations in such a way as to not appeal to people’s intelligence, but their desire to possess the unearned. And it is clearly working.
These elites understand that many people are intellectually lazy and envious, so therefore would choose dependence over the risks and hard work of independence and self-determination. They understand that such people will do nearly anything to ensure they will never need to earn their own keep or suffer the consequences of their actions and decisions. Such people simply wish to validate the fantasy that they are entitled to the property of others simply because they need it.
Herein lies the real strategy of the evil in this world, and the main component needed to construct a slave state under corporate governance. Read more
“The magician and the politician have much in common: they both have to draw our attention away from what they are really doing.” -Ben Okri, Nigerian poet
Clearly, there is a widening gap between political views in America and the rift is only getting wider. Imagine a Tea Party rally today, and try not to cringe. Such a thought is cringeworthy because the evolution of the political Left in America went from a party of “liberals” to the violent and childishly emotional group we see today determined to push their ideology on the rest of America.
It is evident that the political left in America realized during the Obama administration that when an open and honest discussion about their beliefs is engaged, they lose. All it takes is a person who values logic and reason over their own emotional needs, and the Left cannot win.
What does a movement do when it is evident their views are not adequately accepted?
What alternatives do the leftist have when the grassroots are no longer effective?
Paid protestors and ignoramuses used to preach tribalist gospel is an option, but in a world in which there is a camera with nearly unlimited capacity and clarity on the hip of everybody walking down the street, this is most often shown as an obvious deception. Although such actions will never stop, the effect is not strong enough to move a nation built on moral values.
Therefore, what is the next logical step for the Left in America?
Antifa, Occupy Wall Street, Democrats, and Progressives are bent on diminishing free speech, and this is without question to quiet the bullhorn generated by the Tea Party, Libertarian, and other capitalist movements that permeates a significant portion of “conservative” politics today. The true capitalists of America realized that the core of America’s values was well on its way to ruin once Obama was in office and his goals were clear.
Bush, Clinton, and so many others prior to Obama laid the foundation of this by doling out money to states, making them dependent upon Federal handouts for housing, schools, and infrastructure. Then, using this addiction to “free” money, the power brokers in Washington use this leverage to force the hands of local officials to shape their communities as they see fit.
Yet despite all of this, politicians that desire limitless power still had an incredible obstacle to overcome: Making people who would normally agree on certain commonly held principles to instead disagree passionately.
Enter tribalism. Read more
