Thanks, why do you say the left has equated capitalism with corporatism? Hillary Clinton seems like the ultimate corporatist to me.

She is, and many on the Left hate her, saying she's a right wing Fascist... hence the Bernie Sanders movement.
Listen to Sanders and Corbyn (in the u.k.). they are classic marxists who see corporatism as a natural outgrowth of capitalism. When the choice is quite the opposite. Corporatism can only exist within the framework that they advocate, complete dominance of the state.
they are two sides of the same coin... or the same side of two coins... it matters not. Both are totalitarian.
I heard this one guy say once, I think it was Robert Kiyosaki, that the government wants you to work for a big corporation because that way you pay the most tax.
So interesting what you say about Sanders and Corbyn. Never thought about it that way but kind of makes up a missing piece of the puzzle for me.
At my shared office space CNN is on the whole time.
