Volkswagen was caught cheating on its emission data and the CEO got fired, then prosecuted. Why shouldn't that be the case here?

You’d need a coalition of Democratic attorneys general to bring a case in the mould of Big Tobacco.

We'd need a third party if you'd actually want to fight american corporations. Unless you intended "small d" democratic

Good news, the CEO of this American corporation is making a third party… (the monkey paw curls)

A third party... that sounds exactly like the other two.

Where is the anti-capitalism party? The anti-war party? The anti-corruption party? Aren't political parties supposed to represent DIFFERENT interests? Instead we're forced to choose between a party hates immigrants and a party that hates immigrants slightly more

And like you can criticize republicans, but they actually invested in intel. Wrong company, but a step in the right direction.
