Corporatocracy also called Corpocracy, Crony Capitalism, Monopoly Capitalism, Lemon Socialism, Cronyism, Supercapitalism and Socialism for the Rich is an economic system in which the state intervenes within the economy for the benefit of the profit of a select number for corporations, especially in the context of squashing competition.

History

Corporatocracy-like economic policies could have been said to have started with the process of enclosure in England. The enclosure was a process in England practiced since the 13th century by which the English State took communally owned rural land by force and gave it to private owners. When Mercantilism became popularized, governments began to create monopoly corporations in certain trades and industries. Some of these firms such as the East India Company and Hudson Bay Company became so powerful they effectively ruled over the territory. During the Gilded Age, with the rise of industrial capitalism monopolies and other corporations began to get more influence in the government with corruption being rampant. However, during the Progressive era corruption and the influence of corporations in government declined. Since the presidency of Ronald Reagan in the 1980s, many say the United States has been experiencing a constant shift towards Corporatocracy due to more favorable policies given to corporations, corporate influence in government (Lobbying aka legalized bribery), rising income inequality, and the dominance of the workplace by corporations.

Personality

Corporatocracy as a character cares a hell of a lot about getting the maximum amount of money possible, and unlike certain other people with this trait, corp is very much willing to use organized violence to achieve this goal.

Corp absolutely loves government policies that favor the wealthy to an insane extent, and he is often seen literally worshiping concepts such as Intellectual Property as a deity. Because of his love of these policies, he hates the public domain.

Since he thinks the state must serve powerful business owners, he is one of the few ideologies that openly believes that corporate lobbying is a good thing. This is an idea that even some other capitalist ideologies see as unjust (when consistent).
