Everyone sounds very down. But look on the bright side. It's kind of an experiment and you are the guinea pigs. This will probably be the first Corporate Democracy in history. It's the sort of stuff you see in conspiracy movies. I am a little excited to see the outcome. Btw there is plenty of room in New Zealand if anyone wants to see what happens from a distance =P.
Although my guess is there will be a lot of people suffering from this. In the future healthcare won't even be debated, there won't be any complaining about weak democrats =P. Minimum wage increases won't exist. In fact anything that would mean less money for a company, probably won't happen. But this is of course speculation. Can anyone give other possibilities? It could somehow work amazingly and everyone lives better?
It is ironic that Obama was the 'Manchurian candidate' with his many donations from the public, yet a fully corporate sponsored politician is considered free speech.
