An investigation into the CEO of a major corporation concluded that he had been given too much power.
At last we are beginning to see what has happened in our world.
The corporate bosses have been given too much power.
They have ruled like gods over us.
But power corrupts as we have seen in the Royal Commission into the Banks in Australia.
Too much power and no regulation leads to corruption and crime.
It has resulted in the huge disparity between rich and poor in our world.
And it has led to oppression and war.
But because we had no power to stop them the corporate plutocrats ruled.
The time has come to roll back some of the power that deregulation has given to the corporations.
It is up to new leaders to re-regulate the economy to save them from themselves.
But it is not just a matter of swinging wildly from one extreme to the other.
A sensible approach to re-regulation must take into account other economic factors.
But tax avoidance and greed should be wound back.
So that we may live in a more just, more humane world.
