Total Corporate Commodification
The era of corporate control began in earnest in the early 1970's with the release of "The Powell Memo." Concerned about the rise of mass-movements like the ant-war movement, the environmental and women's movement, influential corporate attorney, William Powell-later appointed to the SCOTUS by Richard Nixon circulated a memo to corporate boards and CEO's urging them to put forth as much resources as possible to turn the federal judiciary into a pro-business jurisprudence to counter the rise of too much democracy. Now, fifty-years later those efforts have created a total corporate state AND culture. A correlative to this is the after-effect of 9/11 which has permitted the militarization of our culture and non-questioning of defense budgets by the population, the Smartphone which has changed people's reading habits from print-driven critical analysis to a video-driven scrolling that has created a shallow 21st Century U.S. Citizen, and the Citizens United decision which has turned elections into farcical sports-like spectacles. All the while "We The People" are mere corporate hyper-consumers devoid of original thought. Only an economic collapse can change this arrangement for the future and, more importantly, our collective souls.
