I do not understand how so easily consumers have lost their voice to corporations, and the masses. It's sadly growing into a nebulous entity no longer controlled by the government, a government established by the people for the people.
Because they are consumers, an end to an economic system, and not citizens of a country. The people who inhabit the united states are'nt refered to as "citizens" anymore, which would imply that they had rights, just "consumer" class economic units. Designed and bred to accept whatever they're told by the media and buy what they see in advertising.
It's all very efficient. That's why it will happen. A citizen is irrelevant since economic decisions are done for the corporation's sake. Voteing is irrelevant since whoever wins will be indepted to whatever paid for the election. So why bother calling people citizens if it's an empty title? Consumers is a far more accurate title.
