I believe the corporations run this country, and we are headed toward a plutocracy, so yes I am pissed. But what amazes me is that all the right wingers blame the government, when it is actually the corporations who they need to fear and they support them by voting Republican. They seem clueless to the problem at hand. The Republican's stacked the supreme court with corporate lacky's and busted all the unions. This has been going on since raygun in 1980. What would stop it is public financing of campaigns, but the Republicans have opposed it for the last 40 years. Dems have tried to get public financing of campaigns over and over. Now the corporations have so much power it is hard to find enough people, dems and pubs, who they don't own. The first step back would be to vote straight democratic tickets in every race until we first get more liberal dems and a 5/4 democratic majority on the supreme court to undo all the crazy shit they keep ruling on; and get some democratic judges. But let's blame the right people or we are going to end up a fascist country. Are now.
