Corporate conglomerates using their influence (political bribery) on legislators and the media to get laws passed forcing us to buy their products, yes. I call that an example of the ill effects of corporate fascism. But I already know that there is no possible example that you will accept.
Communities all across America built and paid for their own public utility services. Then the republicans sold those utilities to their wealthy cronies (the ones that paid for their election campaigns and many other perks in office) and immediately squandered the money they got from the sale (the public never saw a dime). Then the communities that had already paid for their utility company once, began paying for it all over again, to cover the new owner's mortgage. Only now they also had to pay even more to cover a handsome profit because it was no longer a public, non-profit utility, it was now a private, for-profit business. AND, they have little say anymore in how the utility is being run, because it's owned and controlled by un-elected CEOs instead of the community's elected representatives.
Yet another example of how corporate bribery so corrupted government all across America that thousands of communities were robbed of the public utilities that they had built and paid for over decades by fascist corporate practices; especially the bribery and coercion of political officials, and the subjugation of the media.
But of course no example I give is going to satisfy you, as you are clearly an apologist for capitalist greed and it's corruption of politics and media.
