The largest corporations are wealthier than some nations. Governments do not have unlimited resources. When national security depends on corporate security, governments can subsidize it with some other parts of their own "infinite resources".
Not saying I disagree with your point overall, but this rhetoric rubs me the wrong way.
- f430 6y ago> Governments do not have unlimited resources. Who owns the money printers? Is it microsoft or is it the governments recognized by the USGOV? Who has control over the monetary supply? Is it microsoft or is it the governments who control respective central bank? Who has control over deciding whether microsoft is a monopoly or not? Again, its not the corporation. Sure you can have corporations richer than most developing nations but that has no relevance on the policy/power balance between government and a corporation. Even if all of the corporations in America formed a coalition, it is the government which has monpoly over violence that can decide out of whim if you are suddenly against them or with them. Why would basic facts rub you the wrong way? Do you believe that corporations can control the military, police and paramilitary forces in the Western world?
