Welcome to Corporate Watch . The purpose of these pages is to alert the public to the growing power of the corporations. They finance political parties and buy out governments to advance their narrow economic interests. Corporations are not accountable to the general public and operate outside democratic politics. These pages will provide some food for thought and encourage citizens to take action to bring corporations within the domain of democratic politics.
