That's an idealist viewpoint. When confronted by a corporation, the "little guy" generally does not have the resources, time, or ambition to stand his rights. There are usually more pressing concerns such as the next month's paycheck. Corporations, however, have oodles of money stored away in investments. I heard once that the GM company has more than $20 billion dollars in various places. For these reasons, if a company has to fight a legal battle against the "little guy" it can usually either scare the opponent away, or bleed the unfortunate person dry.
In my opinion, the American government and economy simply sucks. Thomas Jefferson said that when a government started to do things that the people were against, it was time to get a new government. It was this attitude that led him to the American Revolution, and he totally advocated just the same action if the nation he helped found ever lost it's integrity. I support this premise 110%. Unfortunately, I'm just one faceless "little guy" without the resources, time, or ambition to change anything.
