  1. CRIME AND CORRUPTION

    *Capitalism in America*

    The US Government will do nothing about it because these companies are donors and have lobbyists. Citizens United says HI!

  2. free market capitalism? undermining decisions and choices of the people?? who could have poooossibly seen that coming

    if only you could get together and do something about it without the big companies interfering and lobbying. welp

  3. that’s not surprising, corporate lobbying is more powerful than democracy, especially in America where both parties are bought by the same corporate entities

    it’s interesting that 6 out of the 7 companies are all American

  4. I understand democracy to be the political system of liberal representative democracy.

    The article doesn’t really mention undermining democracy in that sense. It’s about companies that are anti- union and attempting to challenge laws using the democratically created court systems.

    Not every bad thing is undermining democracy.

  5. Tesla simply doesn’t have the aukaat to “undermine democracy” at the scale of Meta or Amazon. Even with Twitter. Should’ve put Google instead.

  6. I would have said, Blackrock, State Street, and Vanguard are the ultimate groups that are literally undermining democracy.

    But you won’t see that headline.
