"How we beat back the corporate takeover of America:
1. Break up corporate monopolies
2. Continue building union power
3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics
Let’s keep working to unrig the system."
Unfortunately, I cannot see that happening unless something occurs to change the political landscape in America. It did happen in the 20th century, but it was probably the result of the great depression, combined with World War II, and the subsequent baby boom. Americans started to demand a comfortable living wage, workers rights, civil rights, and political and economic freedoms.
This started happening in the 50s, but was in full swing by the 60s. The disparity between rich and poor was at it's historical lowest in the 1970s. Unfortunately, this trend was reversed by the Reagan administration, with deregulation and tax breaks for large corporations, that have only accelorated in the past few decades. 9/11 and the curtailing of civil rights and freedoms did not help either.
