I don't think the international corporate system realizes how soon regulatory capture is going to... be not a thing. How brutal that will be for their profit margins. How that being shielded by an LLC (limited liability corporation) won't be keeping them from facing justice for their negative economic externalizations affecting the people of the entire globe for long at all. I'm going to go ahead and leave this link here as a reminder as to what has happened already in the American prison system, and is therefore not "cruel and unusual punishment". Hopefully they take the carrot instead of the stick. Lmao boomer noobs, and greedy younger noobs who are serving a machine that is an orphan crusher, out of a desire for their own personal gain and not being able to self sacrifice for the greater good of Solaria (The name of humanities universal empire, or at least what I think it should be because solar system and it sounds dank AF).

It really looks like we are going the other direction though... Like we are going to have a corporate Congress a la "Space Merchants". I mean kickbacks were just legalized by the supreme court ffs.

What makes you think we are going to get rid of regulatory capture?
