Corporatism IS legislation coming from government.
Which only benefits those corporations.
Right, but too often corporatism is perceived as corporations influencing government - and that misses the point. Corporatism is a form of government that operates by handing out favors to special interests (which aren't necessarily incorporated businesses). That's an important distinction to make because, usually, attempts to combat corporatism target those trying to influence the system, rather than the system itself - which is a mistake.
Nail on the head. And what makes it immensely frustrating is seeing people fling around "solutions to capitalism" where there is no capitalsim. In my opinion, this is a tactic used to keep people from truly understanding who is the culprit of corporatism and how to solve it.
