The only thing that really impacts governments in NA seems to be cash, and in order to have a government-impacting amount of cash one must be a corportation. It's paradoxical. At least if we keep our cash as individuals, we can then spend it on the actual goods and services we value instead of it disappearing into a void of subsidizing whatever corporations got the incumbent government elected.
You won't get to "keep your cash", as individuals..and I find that people often fail to account for the effect of subsidy and regulation on whatever tiny little pile of ameros they actually do have. There's a reason that people who live in places with "free markets" are poor as shit....
More buzzkilling.."keeping our cash" is a euphemism for failing at our civic duty to fellow man through simple avarice. See: this latest tax cut. It;s easy to see why this is a bad idea when you realize that -you- are someone else's "fellow man".
