Continuing with Treason: New World Order...

“There can be no effective control of corporations while their political activity remains.”
Theodore Roosevelt
“The corporations...have successfully leveraged economic power into political power that undercuts the Constitution.”
Charles Reich
The growth of modern transnational or multinational corporations has created many problems for our constitutional form of government. These changes have come upon us almost unannounced and with little recognition by the general public, although in recent years more people are examining the implications of this development. From trade and banking to tourism, human rights, and environmental concerns many activities are now global in outlook and influence. These cross-border economic, social, cultural, and political interactions are increasingly being directed and controlled by large corporations not by governments. Especially with the end of the cold war, economic not military competition rules supreme. Globalization represents the radical transformation of the global economy to benefit large corporations.

Nations have lost the power to control their economics, and financial markets often determine the success or failure of government programs. The Boston Globe, on April 11, 1994, said: “Corporate taxes are crumbling in many industrial countries as companies move their booked profits from one locale to another, telling different stories to different tax collectors.” In 1993, the General Accounting Office told Congress that 40 percent of corporations with assets of at least $250 million paid under $100,000 in U.S. income taxes. Dateline, on August 18, 1995, said the U.S. government isn't properly taxing foreign corporations in the U.S., because U.S. corporations would then be forced to pay higher taxes overseas. About 75 percent of foreign corporations with U.S. operations pay no U.S. taxes.

Large corporations now can compete on equal terms with governments. They are accountable to no one, as the BCCI scandal demonstrated. Multinational corporations can move their production to countries where wage and production costs are much lower. Until recently, this could not be done easily because of political considerations and a lack of capital and technology. However, there has been an increased fusion of economic and political power because of increased capital flows and technological advances. There is now one global work force, with labor far cheaper in third world nations. National interest is determined by what industry, not the people, wants. In 1973 George Ball told the House Committee on Foreign Affairs: “The multinational corporation not only promises the most efficient use of world resources, but as an institution, it poses the greatest challenge to the power of a nation-state since the temporal position of the Roman Church began to decline in the 15th century.”

The rise of the corporate state has given transnational corporations the power to threaten the very existence of democratic institutions throughout the world. Local political movements and regulations have been weakened, while international organizations like the World Bank are beyond democratic control.
