Moving on up - the big money takeover of America
Shortly before the US midterm elections last month, online activist group MoveOn announced that it had acquired a leaked memo documenting the creation of a new organization, RepubliCorp™.
‘The Cabal of Multinational Corporations,’ the memo read, ‘is pleased to formally announce… our complete merger with the Republican Party. RepubliCorp™ combines the ethics-free campaigning savvy of the GOP [Grand Old Party] with the limit-free spending power of Corporate America™.’
The New Internationalist is an independent bi-monthly not-for-profit magazine that reports on action for global justice. We believe in putting people before profit, in climate justice, tax justice, equality, social responsibility and human rights for all.
New Internationalist acknowledges the Traditional Owners of Country throughout Australia and recognises their continuing connection to land, waters and culture. We acknowledge that these lands were stolen and sovereignty was never ceded. We pay our respects to Elders both past and present.
