The difference in the US is that it's corporations that are concentrating the smaller businesses into larger businesses, and making us all employees. It's only when the average American owns the majority of businesses in the form of small businesses, that we concentrate power with the common people. I really believe this.

    Actually the old aristrocracy still owns quite a bit of the UK, it just gets passed down generation to generation.

    I disagree about corperations making us all employees, they are making us all unemployed. Back when there were 100 computer companies quite abit of a computer was designed, built, tested, manufactured here in the US. Each of those companies had R&D, manufacturing, sales, accounting, mailroom, etc people working for it. Now there are a couple computer companies and most of the manufacturing is overseas. Every industry is like that. Consolidation made redundant millions of jobs of all kinds even before robots came around. Efficiancy is what moved us from being 99% farmers to what we will end up as which is 99% uneeded and redundant.
