The US' last two presidents were complete dark horses who promised radical change to the way that the government works. They both ended up working pretty neatly within the system, unfortunately. The US could elect some Bernie Sanders or Jeremy Corbyn like figure who is actually tough on corporations. It could happen! Some measure similar to what the Fed did to Wells Fargo would be unthinkable to people used to this pessimistic political climate, but it's happening now. It wouldn't be hard to get elected on a message of raising corporate taxes and bend the rules however necessary to get them to actually pay.
