We could see back in the 1980s that corporations were becoming more powerful than governments. And that power imbalance has only continued to become more extreme since then.

I saw it a lot further back in France, but they were called institutions back then, not corporations. A rose by any other name. It gives me hope that the sleeping giant (the citizenry) can only be pushed so far.
