corporo-political jackassery 

The shenanigans that corporations play with disingenuous politicians, which place them in a higher position than the politician's individual constituents. These shenanigans may include contributions, lobbying, influence peddling, manipulation of regulatory environments, strong-arming, or other techniques, not unlike those of organized crime, but legitimized by a corporate presence, employed to create a favorable environment for the corporation and its shareholders mostly to the detriment of the individual constituents within the district served and the corporation's stakeholders. Often corporo-political jackassery exploits weak-minded people who respond to buzzwords and grossly oversimplified skeletal concepts they don't understand with militant activism in defense of the buzzword, despite the obvious detriment to the individual; i.e., "Obamacare."
A number of protections were enacted following the Great Depression to prevent our economy from tanking, however thanks to decades of corporo-political jackassery, most were deregulated and Wall Street was alloiwed to police itself. The end product left the U.S. with massive foreclosures, layoffs, and an exodus of industry which further eroded the middle class.

Instead of a juicy ass it's a juicy burger from McDonalds. Nice close ups of their food in perfect image. Hip Hop music videos is a form of corpornation, showing big cars, big bootys, big parties, just complete mass advertising of products at their most perfect level.

(1) There was a cancer cluster all around the chemical plant, but the corporogoverment of the state ignored their health and safety at the behest of the plant owners. (2)The Congress knew that the trade treaty with China would cost their constituents hundreds of thousands of jobs, and that it was a bad deal for the country, but since the country had become a corporogoverment, they approved the treaty because the multinational corporations demanded it. (3) The town had received a grant for $400 million to build a new hospital near the Warbucks Family compound, where it would have best been located, but the city council of the corporogovernment did not wish to offend the family because of their wealth.

corporophage 

For some reason, some dogs are corporophages. That is, they have corporophagia.

If you have this problem, see your vet about tablets/pills that will address this behaviour.

If you know a person like this, they may have more substantial issues.
