So, you agree that:

wait are you trying to say that the government is somehow more corrupt than corporations in a free market...?!

The government must answer to the people, corporations must not if they want to make the most amount of money possible.

If you think that the Government is corrupt, a system that has checks and balances in order for it to be transparent so that it cannot be corrupt, can still become corrupt.. however a corporation which is obliged to keep its activities secret would somehow be less corrupt.. well then it is you that is being naive.

ITT there are two types of people, people that pledge allegiance to a system designed so that people can control the checks and balances of their environment.. and people who pledge allegiance to a system designed to remove them from the equation.

The government you can believe in, if you believe in a corporation, you simply have been hoodwinked by television or commercials.
