What difference who the govt. favors this year or next? The losers will be the people. Even when there is no corps to serve, as in the USSR when all businesses were owned by the "people", the people got screwed. Focusing on specifics is missing the point. The problem is the political/economic power is concentrated and the people worship the system, while hating their rulers. But the outcome will not be better with different rulers. It's the system!!! When people stop worshipping the myth that they can delegate to someone else the power to run their lives, then they will self govern, fixing everything. Until then, there is no hope.
