Re: Nor lack of understanding on my part

And under Reagan, George H. W. Bush, George W. Bush and other Republican presidents, you believe the prosecutor in chief fought corporate criminal wrongdoing more vigorously? I don't think so.

The point is that the law as it stands with Santa Clara County and now Citizens United gives corporations all the leeway they need to break the law and be held unaccountable.

Why you continue to ignore that fact, I don't know.

And btw, it is these laws that permit fascism, the corporate takeover

of government.

Not at all, Louise

Louise,
I thought you understood the basics of all governments excepting classical liberalism.
Classical liberalism is predicated upon limiting the powers of the central government and dividing the powers, where the powers are necessary at all, until no one person can exert significant control. The power such as it is, is left in the hands of the citizenry.
On the other hand all other governments are really aligarchal in nature tending to a dictatorship dedicated to maximizing central power.
The Nazis and Communists were no different. To say Fascism was a case of corporations taking over is pure nonsense. Hitler, Musolini, Lenin, & Mao, for example, were all men that gathered supporters that would support them in taking over. Hitler was a socialist, Musolini, Lenin and Mao were communists.
To call Hitler & Musolini the product of corporations serves only to expose the origins of your political education.
