Commonly mistaken in the late 20th and early 21st Century as Capitalist Democracy, Corporatism is a "reversed fascist" political structure where Corporations impose policy onto Government.
Corporatism has divested Governments of the ability to control policy, economy, and ultimately the fate of the nation.

A politico-economic system in which most power is held by large corporations, often mistakenly called capitalism. This is the current governing system of most of the world.
Man, that ain't capitalism. Look at all advantages the big multinationals get. Subsidies and all that shit. They write the laws. What you got is some motherfucking corporatism.

cor-po-ra-tize -
kawr-per-uh-tahyz, -pruh-tahyz–verb (used with object), -tized, -tiz-ing.

1. To aid or enable or encourage the dying of the light.

2. The buying and or acquiring of a wonderful, naturally occurring idea, event, or concept (hangout, rock band local bar & grill) that appeals to a certain group of people, and most likely has acquired some notoriety; then sterilizing the life and soul out of said idea until it can be digested by the masses. Thus aiding in both programming and maintaining the illusion of freedom enjoyed by the clones and worker bee’s we’ve all become.
"Why can't I have my burger cooked medium?" said the confused clone, "well sir we can corporatize that burger for you, for your own safety and because the lawyers told us we had to, either way sir your getting it well done" the server explains while trying to smile like the lady at the DMV did.
