Covid 9-11: The New Pharaohs

There probably hasn't been a period of sustained oligarchic piss-taking at this level since the time of the pharaohs. I fully expect them to declare themselves gods next.” - Ian Jenkins

‘Corporate Capture’ or ‘Client Politics’ is a term which really should not require any elaboration, but just for the hell of it, let’s take the first definition that Google throws up.

‘Corporate capture’ is a phenomenon where private industry uses its political influence to take control of the decision-making apparatus of the state, such as regulatory agencies, law enforcement entities, and legislatures.

That should suffice us, although I would prefer to describe it as an historical process rather than an isolated phenomena; something intrinsically tied to the dynamic of capital accumulation which has taken from the poor and given to the rich, it seems, from time immemorial. One might also define it as the cancerous influence of private ownership over a tenuous system of so-called representative democracy which for a short time conceded a few modest comforts to its subjugated labouring classes, typically packaged as ‘rights’, ‘freedoms’, and ‘liberties’.
