Corporate socialism versus capitalism in crisis
Raph Nader argues that corporate socialism concentrates power and wealth, erodes democratic checks, and corrupts markets. He cites the blurring of ownership and control, too big to fail bailouts, standard form contracts, and corporate lobbying as threats to equal justice and democratic values. He calls for a constitutional separation of corporation and state and a new national commission to curb corporate concentration.
