>>102436>The economy is still very much state run top down.The American economy is run top-down too, the main difference is the US system has effectively propagandized people into thinking it's not. The other difference is that in the US, the power isn’t centralized under a single party’s politburo, it’s concentrated in the hands of a few financial elites (with a disproportionate number of Zionists/Jews) and corporate oligarchs who operate with near-total impunity.
Take Larry Fink of BlackRock, for example. Fink’s obsession with pushing ESG and DEI isn’t just some corporate trend; it’s a top-down ideological mandate enforced across thousands of companies. BlackRock, Vanguard, and State Street collectively dominate shareholder voting in most major corporations, effectively dictating corporate governance while sidelining actual CEOs and elected officials. When Fink preaches, Fortune 500 boards listen, not necessarily because they agree, but because BlackRock’s voting power can make or break them.
Agencies like the SEC, FDA, and FTC are staffed by ex-bankers and corporate lawyers who rotate between government and industry, ensuring policy aligns with elite interests. Politicians leave office and immediately cash in by serving corporate boards or lobbying firms. The US federal government funnels trillions to connected industries (e.g., Wall Street in 2008, Big Tech via CHIPS Act) through "bailouts" while small businesses get crushed. At least in China, the state’s control is usually transparent. In the U.S., the illusion of "free markets" is maintained while a tiny elite class rigs the system behind closed doors.
