41. As citizens the national political levers of power

Thu Apr 6, 2023, 03:28 PM

Apr 2023

to which we have access are the executive, legislative, and judicial branches. As consumers we have access to the lever of power which is the corporations. I think that it is important to use all of the access that we have. Of course, the more that we give up our status as citizens to embrace our status as consumers the less we are able to access the political levers of power.
