(1) Camus on X: The Hidden Monopoly Controlling America (And the World)
88% of S&P 500 companies have BlackRock, Vanguard, or State Street as their largest shareholder. That’s not capitalism—that’s a corporate oligarchy.
🔍 Follow the Money: - Defense contractors? Raytheon, Boeing, Lockheed Martin—top shareholders are the same Big Three.
- Pharma? Media? Education? Same players, same influence.
- $10 TRILLION in assets—only US & China have bigger GDPs than BlackRock alone.
💣 The Military-Industrial Complex: - 5 companies control defense contracting.
- $744 BILLION in military spending—more than the next 10 nations combined.
- More war = more profit. Who really dictates foreign policy?
🌐 Global Control: - ESG mandates—forcing ideologies on corporations.
- $70 TRILLION in assets under their influence.
- Ukraine’s $400B "rebuild"? Handed to BlackRock & JPMorgan.
🤔 The Real Power Players: They can fire CEOs, replace boards, and shape policy—while monopolizing markets far beyond legal limits. (Apple’s 60% iPhone share? No FTC action.)
⚔️ How Do We Fight Back?
- Break the monopolies—enforce antitrust laws.
- Demand transparency—follow the money in media, pharma, and defense.
- Decentralize power—support competition, not corporate tyranny.
This isn’t conspiracy—it’s corporate colonialism. If we don’t act, unelected billionaires will keep ruling the world.
