Feudalism is the only word I could find to describe the current situation as money collected from us (the hardworking taxpayers) is directed to the monstrously wealthy - who (through trickery) pay relatively little or no tax on obscene profits (or get it back by gov't grants), to fund creating more efficient ways of tricking us into purchasing at ridiculous rates energy gathered from the earth, wind, sun, water and air. Isn't funded research supposed to benefit those who pay for it? For that matter isn't the profit of their corporations also, truthfully, simply another form of tax levied on us anyway (& sanctioned by the govts -elected and paid by us to protect our interests instead of granting license to the wealthy to get away with their thieving ways).
Please don't bring up who owns what and why - all that legal mumbo jumbo is just the technicality of theft. The emperors have no clothes! We can all see their obese greedy hearts. What are we going to do about it?

Evil Disney: That's been tried many times and it has never worked - it just created another version of the same thing - mediocrity in control is no better than tyranny. We have to find a better way - something that unites everyone instead of destroying anyone.

Get rich quick schemes in the capitalist business world, (buyouts, IPOs, conglomerates, acquisitions, mergers, and the stock market), do not actually work. Remaining solvent does not actually exist within false economics capitalism.
Profit existing in the capitalist business world, or millionaires existing within capitalism, is pathological deception committed by the 21 organizations spying on the population with plain clothes agents, (with covert fake names and fake backgrounds).
Actual economics is the persons paying the monthly business loan payments of companies voting at work in order to control the property they are paying for.
Capitalism is the psychology of imaginary parents, false economics, and the criminal deception of employees that are paying the bills (including the stocks and bonds, or shares) of companies.
Anti-democracy republicanism is the psychology of imaginary parents and false government.

This isn't a question, its a biased essay against current society. I don't think its as bad as you make it out to be.
Are you talking about the USA? There are 300 million people here and a huge percentage of them live in a nice house with two cars...the American dream.

This is why we need global communism and the destruction of the upper class, and private property. We need a goverment that will equally distrubute to all.

How is it that WE have permitted (etc etc)...?
WE have not, those in power have created laws and structured society to meet their own ends and fulfill their own desires. They don't give a rat's a.s.s about the lower classes or masses.
They are in control, not "WE" and they structure society to benefit themselves.
