10. I don't see the connection
Corporations lobby the government. Corporations have too much influence in government, certainly. But the people elect the government. Here comes your second argument. I think that to a point that is accurate, but that is going to be true in any country. People get most of their news information from the dominant media. But really inquisitive people get it elsewhere, from books to obscure and serious periodicals, to the internet. It's within a person's power to inform himself. The fact that most don't says nothing about the government or fascism, it just says something about dull people.
