Corporatism IS the problem, and dismantling corporate personhood is the answer.  Corporatism could not be the many-headed hydra that it currently is without support from US law, law which essentially views a corporation to have the same rights as an individual citizen.

Corporations exercise their "right" of free speech by outspending voting citizens in local, state and national elections time after time.  (I'll get back to you when my individual annual earnings are in the billions, and I can donate millions and millions to all my favorite candidates...)

The most worrying aspect of all this is that these corporations are international and multinational, i.e. they have no vested interest in the success of any individual country (such as ours, USA), as long as they have freedom to operate their business inside a country free of as many restrictions as possible.  They are motivated by earnings, and the bottom line doesn't care if America succeeds or fails as a nation.

Indeed, a good arguement can be made that corporations have long been preparing to abandon America to second tier nation status.  They have placed people in office for decades who have dumbed down the general level of education, starved the national infrastructure into desparate decline, created a small but significant oligarchy, and grown the underclass while squeezing the middleclass so hard with taxes that they have become 60-hour a week workbots trying to ensure that their jobs don't get outsourced.

Indians and Chinese are viewed as the next great consumers, and their sheer numbers, as well as their dictatorial and/or corrupt governements, make them far more attractive to deal with than trying to rectify the impacts of greed on the long-term American economy.
