I wonder if it would even matter if people woke up to what's happening. 

Most people already know that Vanguard, Blackrock, and State Street are the primary culprits of wealth consolidation. There are others, but the reason I bring them up is because they are the ones that are giving the allusion of a free market. It's not a monopoly...it's a duopoly. A duopoly can give the appearance of true competition when in fact, they are the same companies.

Do you ever wonder why there are usually only two competing choices that dominate most of the market industry. Of course there are others, but there are usually two:

• there are only two major operating systems-Microsoft and Apple. Together they hold about 85% of the global market in that industry.
• there are only two major soft drink companies - Coke and Pepsi. Together they hold about 70% to 80% of the global market in that industry.
• Visa vs Master Card - 90% of the global market share
• Andoid Vs IOS - 99% of the global market share. 
• Boeing vs Airbus - 98%

Why is this the case? Because these three companies own each other. Even the boards, from their subsidiary companies, have some of the same members. This way they profit either way and they can choke upcoming competition. Though the products are different, they are still under one ceiling. 

This is not free a free market. They have just done a great job in making it appear to be.

Remember DeLorean?

The big three set him up, with the help of the US government. 

No one gets to horn in on the game. No one.

It's got to be the Jews.

Chick-fil-A opened their first restaurant in 1967, today they have over 3,000 locations. There is room for success if you have a good product, good management, and good service.

What is the purpose to rule of law in real time biological evolving one at a time now?

hint: Every reproduction is specifically uniquely alive with by specific chromosomes that last one's body throughout all changes since conception to decomposed corpse in series parallel positions daily alive here in this universal position each rotation their total sum of living was never duplicated twice doing the same things over and over because life doesn't within time never exceeds all the hearts beating here now with each heart having a sole brain to navigate space as individually here in specific ancestral lineages and generation gaps inhabiting space now.

Circle of life by the specific reproductive cycles left living here so far. this is accurate for the entire food chain Existed so far. Everything is connected in series [parallel time inhabiting space now.

Literal time logistics ha 2 calendar days changing each rotation forward dawn to dusk mentally while physically living as eternally separated by hearts beating separately as each brain navigates from their own sole time displaced since arriving a fertilized cell.

Point I make is absolute power of suggestion (free speech) corrupts every ancestor trained after birth to die in character defending human rights to defy natural rhythm of living in plain sight or else face insubordination, treason, blasphemy from their own reality first, and everyone else's seconding your reality's believes life exceeds time adapting forward all the logistical time created since dawn of civilization created codes of silence in each society orchestrated institutionally every generation added again.

The [[[HISTORY CHANNEL]]]......[aka "The Hitler Channel" ] produced this great documentary about how Big Business in America came to be.

Invest heavily in all the above and it won't bother you near as much.

Wait till they all come crashing down 

AT&T was at one point a monopoly. Stock price is lower than 2000 highs today (25 years later)

Your brain navigates space between each next heartbeat your body adds since conceived as a fertilized cell but your mind only projects ideas life isn't self evident time equally here. Your body only exists adapting in space daily NOW, not by NWO.

Who's fault is that when you have free will to be honest within yourself or protect social truisms until extinction happens when the rotation of the planet where great great grandchildren stop arriving one at a time when conceived by last generation born into living eternally separated by hearts beating in series parallel space, now...

Point is, I worked for 32 years in that company building the national network for universal service in communications around the globe. I understand how networks are created and used against each ancestor alive.

The OP sounded a little like foot stomping, mad at what is beyond his control. I was merely giving an option to settle that leg down a bit.

I don't know where you are seeing me as foot stomping mad. I was just simply laying out what is happening. 

Also, most people are already investing in these companies. We don't have a choice. If you have a 401k, then chances you are investing in them and you don't even know it. Who else are you going to invest in? 

The biggest threat, in my opinion, that these duopolies present is the lack of innovation. There are brilliant people in this country who can invent exponentially better products, but it is impossible for them to compete against such giants. That hurts all of society.
