It used to be that the government would force companies to break up when they got too big. Hasn't happened in decades though. Government is too corrupt now.

It's not corruption, it's capture.

Neoliberalism has been the hegemonic politico-economic ideology for 30+ years in this country, and neoliberals believe that "the market knows best".

We keep electing people who honestly believe government shouldn't interfere. That it shouldn't... Govern.

At least, not the rich.
