Here is what has happened to our nation, due to uncontrolled Capitalism and Corporate Greed: Banks have become corrupt. Our country's largest banks lie and cheat customers out of Billions of dollars annually, force people out of their homes, and stick clients with additional fees. Big Banks and Wall Street caused the Great Recession of 2008. From the trillions of dollars in taxpayer bailouts, they rewarded themselves with huge bonuses. See the five worst banks that should be broken up. Pharmaceutical Companies control pricing. In 2002, the pharmaceutical industry and their lobbyists actually wrote Medicare legislation which gave them the ability to raise prices without any controls. Medications today are often more than 10 times the prices that other nations pay. They mislead the public on the safety of addictive opioids which kill tens of thousands of people a year. It has gotten so bad that Americans often have to decide between food and their medications. Processed Foods & Sugar makes us fat. The processed food and sugar industries have been lobbying and promoting sugar for 30 years now. Through slick publicity and lobbying, they have been able to convince politicians and the public alike that fat is the main health problem we face, not sugar. This has created two generations of obese people who ingest 2-10 times the amount of addictive sugar they should be taking on a daily basis. This has made our population fatter and sicker with more cases of diabetes, cancer and other ailments than ever before. The Media polarizes us. The Media, driven by ratings (and associated profits), have learned to skew their news and entertainment to specific groups, slanting their information to better appeal to certain population segments. Some cable stations are more propaganda than news. This has created silos of mistrust and hate within our country; many of our citizens have now become "brainwashed" (or "cult-ivated") and are now less tolerant of others and believe in conspiracy theories. The Defense Industry keeps us in the Middle East. Defense Industry corporations ensure that our politicians continue to send billions of dollars their way every year. We spend more on our defense than the next seven countries with the largest defense budgets, combined! President Eisenhower warned about the "Military Industrial Complex" running Washington's Pentagon and even developing our nation's defense strategies. Today we have never-ending wars, and trillions of dollars wasted overseas, all thanks to them. Oil and Gas Lobbyists control Washington. The oil industry controls Washington to such a degree that they even place "their own" into government's highest levels, including department heads, Vice Presidents, even Presidents. They make tens of billions of dollars in profits annually, yet still receive billions in tax subsidies from taxpayers every year. Our healthcare is a mess. Our nation's healthcare industry is now the most expensive of any industrialized nation, yet provides some of the poorest healthcare. Many of us regularly have to do without needed medical treatments because of the overall costs. Hospitals have become profit centers and hide true costs from patients. Insurance companies do all they can to avoid paying for necessary treatments and doctors are no longer in charge of patient's healthcare. And unchecked capitalism has made the coronavirus so much worse! There are eight components in controlling the virus' spread and unchecked capitalism has infected all of them. Our inability to deal with the virus now will make the US death toll higher than in any other country, and will inhibit our ability to eradicate this virus for the foreseeable future.Corporations do not want you to know about these issues! They know that If you don't know about the problem, you cannot start to solve the problem. And it will have to be us, the taxpayer that forces these changes; politicians won't.
