Who decides who gets to play?

 


Power is shifting worldwide 
and the technologies
under development 
make real 'democratic' governance,
in any part of the world, 
subject to 
corporate domination of information. 

Mr. Big's new motto is
'Out with the old, 
in with the digital'.  
 
But who controls the digital? 
Who decides who gets to play? 
Who owns
the info flow?
 
Beware of 
the hollow promises
that big-tech
makes.
 
They claim,
Life,
and 'democracy',
will be
so much easier.

By now
we know
it's a rigged 
game.
