Sorry, but you're forgetting:
- shadowy allegations of conspiracies
- caricatures of corporations as all-powerful Machiavellian forces wielding the very levers of global history
- castigation of "overly" aggressive and "too" competitive behaviour
- refusal to consider the role of competition and consumer choice
- refusal to acknowledge the participation of all people as both buyers and sellers of goods on the free marketplace
- refusal to ignore the massive and widespread concessions and responses to populist demands evident in modern politics
- sole focus on the influence of abnormally wealthy entities on the political system (and refusal to admit that without a massive cultural change a human-run politic is impossible to insulate from monetary corruption).
It's important to keep the facts in mind before you go wild insinuating something absurd like the average consumer being anything more than a ragged brainwashed puppet of the corporocrat Illuminati.
