The middle graphic indicates this is from 9 years ago. It would be interesting to see what has changed in that time. This was before Disney bought Lucasfilm for $4.05 billion in 2012, and now their net worth is nearly $130 billion.

The rightmost graph is also out of date, as Disney and Hearst bought NBC's shares of A&E in 2012. Things are even more consolidated today.

I don't get how this is illusion of choice. If I was a carpenter and made 100 different chairs, and you could choose one of them to buy (or not) based on your taste and budget, how is that not your choice?

You make 100 different brands of furniture & place them on consignment to a store. Customers see 100 different brands and probably don't know who makes them. They choose what they like (from what you offer), but you always get the money. Their brand choice is an illusion.

This is corporatocracy, not capitalism. We've been stuck with centralized fiat currency and stepped from Bretton Woods. We've been co-opted into a system that devalues purchasing power. Until we acknowledge the system, emptying out career politicians, we're stuck.
