REAL CHANGE
(not small change)
We're being told by today's High Priests of Conventional Wisdom that everyone and everything in our economic cosmos necessarily revolves around one dazzling star: the corporation. This heavenly institution, the HPCW explain, has such financial and political mass that it is the optimal force for organizing and directing our society's economic affairs, including the terms of employment and production.
Do something!

Several progressive groups have done extensive research on various aspects of corporate "rights," and some have filed friend-of-the-court briefs in the case that Justice Roberts is using to unleash corporate campaign spending. Also, some groups are working to overturn the ridiculous claim of corporate personhood. For more information contact:

For action, Lowdowners can help stir up awareness of this ominous shift in America's political system. The media are mostly asleep, most Congress members are unaware of it, and even activist organizations have not been alerted. To help rally the media, Congress, and the public, Public Citizen has put up a website of suggested actions. Check it out...And act!
