By instituting a more federalist method of government, the centralized regulations and legislative acts that come from a more central government lose their power over regulatory actions to add or subtract power from one or more individuals or groups. Having multiple governing institutions with much greater amounts of granted powers prevents corruption by greatly increasing the amount of powers in which a corrupting group needs to work to infiltrate and take the power for themselves. In a centralized government system such as the one the United States currently has, a corrupting group simply needs to take command of the one government at the highest level in order to push regulation and legislation that can carry their agenda forward. By decreasing the power of that singular authority and giving the power to that of the states at the individual level, the power held by that authority is then voided. Then, instead of having to win over only one set of legislatures, they then would need to convince the legislatures of every individual government at the state level in order to push their own agenda with regulatory actions that control how and when competition could be created against them. Without this action of decentralization, they could push these actions into law and stifle competition against them and even further grow their power past the point of recovery. The law’s protections against monopolies and industry control make it very difficult to keep larger corporations under control once they’ve passed a certain threshold of size and influence within the world. Once they have passed this boundary of law, they can use their power, influence, and resources to push their agendas to gain even greater amounts of all three. If the power of governance was instead transferred to that of the states and into a more federalist style of power, the large corporations would then have to submit to the many other laws and regulations, thus even further diminishing their ability to leverage their resources and influence in order to abuse the government systems.
