It's corporations (which did not exist, in their modern form at least, when our founders set everything up) that are killing this planet. It's their sole focus on profit above all else that forces them to find new ways for us all to consume this planet.

Nah, East India Company , possibly the originalest biggest baddest corp is why USA exists. GB had to choose between sugar (America) and spice (India) and due to essentially lobbying from the EIC GB decided to pour its military focus into the East, not west.
It had been said EIC encouraged France to agitate the americas (making EIC appear the safer investment than opening new world opportunities) and without the interference of France the American Revolution would never have been feasible.
So yea, corporations interfering with America since before day 0 I’m afraid.
