Lewis Powell is the author of a 1971 memorandum to the influential U.S. Chamber of Commerce, making a long-term blueprint for a corporate domination of the US system.[1]


“[Corporate] strength lies in organization, in careful long-range planning and implementation, in consistency of action over an indefinite period of years, in the scale of financing available only through joint effort, and in the political power available only through united action and national organizations.”
Lewis Powell (1971) [citation needed]
