Reform your democracy when lobbying is such a big problem. The more power in one place the more worth you get on lobbying. Change to a more democratic system and maybe smaller countries.

But we're not talking about the democracy problem. We're talking about the capitalism problem.
No you talk about Corporatism. One of the way to fight that is to give it less points of power to hook into.

- Federalism

- Direct Democracy

- Small Staate

- Strong Constitution

- Strong Mechanism to insure new laws dont violate constitution

- Transparency

No you talk about Corporatism.

Very, very wrong. Turning corporatism into "true" capitalism (no TRUE capitalism puts sugar in its porridge, by the way) would not halt the march of computationally-driven productivity advances and subsequent disemployment.
