International corporate power is the curse of humanity.
No government can stand it its way. The most powerful government on Earth--ours--is a tool of the corporations, and does their bidding, from wars in the Middle East to Keystone to TPP.
And yet there is one force greater than the combined mass of the corporations, but that force is not apparent because it stands divided and neutralizes itself.
Imagine a gigantic lump of iron with all the little polarized atoms pointing in every which direction. The lump is inert and exerts no force other than that which gravity gives it.
Now imagine the same huge lump of iron with one difference: All of the little atoms are arranged so that their "north" poles all point in the same direction and their and "south" poles point in the opposite direction. Now you have the world's most powerful magnet, capable of lifting a locomotive.
If all the workers of the world got their heads pointed in the same direction, there is nothing they could not accomplish.
