Thread on corporate America. Too may conservatives are caught up in a 1990’s business school view of laissez-fair economics assuming those corporations are acting to maximize shareholder value as opposed to advancing an agenda & are acting removed from corporate cronyism… (1/8)

…Instead, corporate America is - across multiple industries - using massive market power combined with government-corporate cronyism to impact negatively - in real time - the lives, liberty, & ability to pursue happiness of the American people… (2/8)

…It is hardly deniable that #BigTech & #BigMedia are using their power along with govt regulatory protection to impact what we read, see, & hear in a way designed to affect policy. It’s true re: #COVID, race/CRT/BLM, gender/trans (e.g. Disney), CO2/Energy & more… (3/8)

…It is hardly deniable that #BigHealthcare is using its massive power to enrich itself thru corporate crony policies. Obamacare “coverage” mandates, COVID mandates, tax policies biased to corporations - all reducing access to doctors & limiting… #HealthcareFreedom (4/8)

…It is hardly deniable that #BigEducation (a mix of University & K-12 monopoly, union influence, corporate cronyism) limits options for parents and students - keeping them trapped without choice to accept the “agenda” however radical & hostile to their values it is… (5/8)

…It is hardly deniable that #BigEnergy & #BigGreen (w/ help of #BigTech & #BigEducation) are making large profits off of subsidies at the expense of small/mid-size energy companies and the well-being / flourishing of Americans (& empowerment of Russia & China)… (6/8)

…the GOP should promote policies that are radically pro-small business, pro-competition, anti-ESG, pro-#EducationChoice, pro-#HealthcareFreedom & end preferences/subsidies in energy… while ending deficit spending. Laissez-fair in economics, but not blind to the abuse… (7/8)

…by #BigCorp of market power combined with government funding & tax/regulatory policies to undermine fundamental freedoms & core values while rolling over the ability of small businesses & STATE GOVERNMENTS to enable us to live how we prefer in a federalist system. (8/8) /end
