To me, this is part of a larger, growing trend. The corporations control the world, and no one can stop them. The US government seems disinterested in protecting citizens from corporate behavior.

I used to be a placeholder in the Capitol, when I was in school. Some lawyer would pay my boss $26/hr, and he’d pay us $10/hr to stand in line outside the hearing room. Ten minutes before the hearing was ready to begin, the lawyers would show up and take our places in line, so they could make sure they had a seat for the hearing.
It was a good job for a college student.
