What represents corporations in America?

[BeFree]

The Chamber of Commerce.

In every little burg, hamlet and big city, CoC has an office. They have infiltrated America with their message of putting people second to the corporation.

If you want to fight back against the corporate takeover of the US you can begin doing so at your local office?

1. Or buy shares in publicly traded companies and vote those shares to influence behavior.

3. That is a joke. I got a my proxy for my 100

shares a few days ago. What a scam these people with money have going. First the Board recommends you vote for all Board members. Then the Board recommends you vote for their hand picked financial auditor. There were five or six shareholder issues only two of which I even come close to understanding they had to do with limiting pay for the CEO and other officers. Of course the Board recommended to vote against all shareholder issues. I have 100 votes out of millions of shares my votes are totally meaningless. Look at any companies annual report and you will see all their Board members are CEOs or high officials of other companies and they all serve on multiple boards. The CEO from "A" company that sits on the Board of "B" company isn't going to vote against giving a raise to the CEO of "B" company when the CEO of "B" company sits on the Board of "A" company.

2. The local chambers in every little hamlet

have zero relationship with the National Chamber of Commerce. Their members are the local coffee shop, chiropracter, used furniture store, grocer or realtor; the people you see every day if you live in a small town and shop locally.

4. yep

But they are a direct conduit to the US CoC. They share the name.

You get the local CoC to tell the next level up that they don't like what the higher levels are doing to their good names and change will begin.

Indeed, most of the locals agree that the big corporations as represented by their multi-level CoC, are too highly favored by the government.
