I don't believe that the fact that politicians often become lobbyists for large companies is automatically to be assumed to be a bad thing. It surely does not meet the definition of fascism.
What's presented in the OP is hardly where fascism starts or finishes in this system, I didn't think anyone would take it that way, I guess you did.. shrug.

Well they're becoming far more than lobbyists. If you look at the job titles you can see that.

Why would you want to live in a communist system?

That's also not disturbing or surprising.
Politicians are just people, like you and me. They aren't branded, "politician"' and therefore can never seek other employment or better their situation.
Corporations are not moustache swirling, scheming, evil corrupt entities. They are just a group of people organized to do business. They are no more necessarily corrupt than "mom and pop" shops, or individual laborers.
