> while allowing corporations to flourish - institutions where citizens have absolutely no say in

Wrong. Corporations are the one of most sensitive organisation types. Stop giving them money, see how soon and peacfully they die. Remind me a state that has given its power peacefully ?

I've stopped giving my money to plenty of corporations. Nobody noticed or cared and nothing happened.

I've called a corporation and asked for transparency and data so I can see what they're actually doing. They oddly didn't return my call.

I've called a corporation and told them how I want them to represent my interests. They oddly didn't return my call.

I've complained corporations have no reason to do things which are good for me, the consumer or employee, and all the reasons to do things that are bad for me. By design. Not because of corruption or because of malicious actors who fail to do their jobs. My complaints fell on deaf ears.

Difficult to stop giving them money when they sell products billions use, and also employ millions. It's probably easier to overthrow the half the states in the world than to bring down Apple.
Oh cmon at least be realistic. Are you sure, 5 years from now, Apple is going to be as powerful as today ?

Market always tend toword decentralisation. More so in AnCap one.
