Corporations, Politics, and Democracy: Corporate political activities as political corruption
There is a genuine concern that wealth supported by business interests undermines the health of Western liberal democracies (see, e.g., Lessig, 2011; Wolin, 2010). Crouch (2004) used the term “post-democracy” to describe how businesses exercise inordinate political power to shape governmental policy. Similarly, Barley (2007, p. 201) suggested that representative democracy has been replaced with a “corporate society” in which corporations influence legislation for their own benefit, without regard for a country’s citizens. The insight that business is intertwined with politics is not new; throughout history, businesses have undermined the will of the people in the pursuit of profits (Barley, 2010). Rather, the concern is that Western liberal democracies are moving increasingly in the wrong direction; corporate influence is on the rise leading to an erosion of democratic principles and a process of de-democratization in many countries around the world (Brown, 2015; Fraser, 2015).

Why You Should Be Worried About Chemicals In Your Chewing Gum
The next time someone offers you a stick of gum, don't accept it right away unless you've gotten a chance to check out the ingredients on the package. That may seem dramatic to you, but it won't by the time you finish reading about the sketchy list of chemicals in each seemingly innocent piece.
