Big Busness Governs the Government in the USA

A very interesting development last month, in the changing power relationship between big government, and big business:

This last month, Apple computer announced, followed by a few other very large global companies, that they had been hacked by China.

This was a direct message to the Chinese government, surpassing the authority of the USA. The large businesses were oviously acting in concert, and enacting a very exact plan to force the US government to admit publically that this existed, while warning China directly - giving them the clear message that big business is a separate and significantly powerful entity that must be appeased, and cannot be controlled by the USA.

The US government responded like a news reporter late on a scoop, admitting the Chinese State had tried to hack both US businesses, but also military contractors and the like.. as if they are aware, but not really into stopping it. 

I think I know why... The Chinese responded to Apples passive aggressive warning with a virtual admission of hacking, stating that the US has been doing the same thing in China for years.. of which there is no doubt. The US must think we are simply better at the game, and we can take more information than we will give up, with a semi-secret and open Cyber warfare with China. thus the lack luster response to some kind of Cyber armistices.

Times are a changing... With Corporations and State blending.. Imagine a Chinese company with so much influence in our politics, that we allow them to take information from American companies.. not at all far fetched with a perverse Econopolitical system.

Business influence over government in the states has changes the political dynamics of the world.

Global domination games have taken an unusual shape.. with sworn enemies fighting WWII style wars while concurrently conducting business and trade. I wonder is Nixon had this in mind all along..

And a trend that is just starting, but will increase.. States are buying areas of land on the commercial market, or overthrowing un-business-friendly governments rather than invading them with State sponsored military and tring to hold territory by force, trends that can only increase until the people rise up and stop it through the media.
