Re: pitching politics at a corporation. Well, the thing that has always made the US capitalist machine function is the role of civil society supporting the corporate / state messaging. In fact, the role and the use of civil society as a means to transmit corporate propaganda IS the main reason US politics looks and operates the way it does.
Look at it this way, you can go to your local school board and say "Hey, I'd like to run a free 'Young Entrepreneur' seminar for the kids?"
That'd probably go down really well. Nods all around, the local small business coalition would probably send you materials to use, hell Coke might even get on board and supply refreshments.
No go and say "Hey, I'd like to do a seminar for the High Schoolers on the history of worker's rights and how to organize a union." and see what support happens.
