That said, I think the U.S. is being controlled, as Eisenhower warned, by the Military Industrial Complex and to get back our democracy, we have to remove Corporate America from the media(one station/publication only), elections, lobbies, and not let elected officials or their direct family members have dealings with Corporate America for 10 years before or after holding office. The people are not the same as corporations because corporations have much more power than individuals. People have to be protected from corporate power and we need a separation of corporate and state, just as there is a separation of church and state. Corporations do not have the rights of individuals, rather they are subject to the people and laws to regulate them. Mussolinni defined fascism as the marriage of the corporate and the state.
