out of control of the economy, and they do tend to fund the campaigns when it is in their interest.

Well, let's see.
Right-wingers want either corporations or churches running everything.
Some people all over the political spectrum want government agencies running everything.
How about the way things were before the 80s and the rise of Reagan and his ideas? There were corporations, and businesses had an active role, but there were regulations in place to keep them from running roughshod over people's rights. Religion's role in taxpayer funded activities was also more limited.
I think the best thing to do would be to dismantle most of the things that have happened since Reagan's first term in the 80s. That way we wouldn't have the government running *everything*, but corporations and religious groups would have some checks on their power.

Establish a COMMUNIST society!
Yeah, that'll take the corporations out of control.
Might not be what you want though.
I think the problem is that corporations get more done because they have resources and a singular set of goals. The pooled effort and resources, especially when you have multiple companies and organizations, make it a more powerful and organized lobby than individual citizens who are often reluctant to agree on anything...

As long as they don't try to take over my food, water, medical or any other neccessity to life, the corporations can have the rest.
They can make all the crappy soft drinks and running shoes they want.
But if they do try to take control of the neccessities, they are f*cking dead.

Actually, I'd like to create a socialist society.

I'm not totally sure I understand your question, but I think monopolies (companies owning over 50% of their market) are illegal, and the government will break them up. It might help if there was simply more and better competition.

How do we get the corporations out of control? Why could we want to get them out of control? I have an idea for you. English Grammer 101

Corporations are not in control of our government. Don't believe all the socialist propoganda. You'll just become one big angry person if you buy into it.
