I'd imagine he's referring to the little ways in which our government and laws seem to end up going against the interests of the average consumer. Lobbyists orchestrating Congress to act against the interests of their constituents, etc. Or issues like the chairman of the FCC undoing net neutrality, when nearly every citizen is in favor of keeping it, etc. Increasingly it seems to be "of the will of the corporations", not the will of the people.



FCC and other federal bureaucracy are by-product of Will of People .. centralize the power .. Federal government any way!

To blame libertarians for FCC is like blaming John McCain for Vietnam war.


The follow up would be that the will of the people has been coopted by corporations and the 1%. They use their wealth to control the funding of politicians and bend them to their will. "Corporations are people", brings an imbalance of power.
