A lack of specifics in the poll meant that it should be answered in huge generalizations which describes my earlier post. I would say the EPA has been made less powerful by the influence of corporations but, in general, corporations write our laws, dictate the votes and opinions of our elected officials, and get away with figurative murder. Their legal status as paper citizens means they are accountable to no one. I don't think of the Fed as evil because, when it boils down to it, I have a say in what it does. I have a vote, assuming it is counted correctly, you never know anymore! In a corporation, I have no say whatsoever. Sure, I can boycott, but my non-purchase of their product is pointless. The people who run the corporations are not interested in the common good nor do they respect national boundaries. As 'citizens' go, they are hardly model examples. They run the show, and what a magical circus it is!
The poll is too general to be of any value. For example, I doubt that the OP and I would agree on what the word evil means. If we are speaking in terms of honesty, a government certainly has just as much reason to be dishonest as a corporation does.
