The US Chamber of Commerce is one of many lobby groups established by the Aristocratic Class to defend the Aristocratic Class from the peasants of America.
The CoC is full of little decoys invited to join and display a plaque, who get no voting rights on what the CoC does or says, and who get no place at the planning tables. The decoys, camouflage, distraction junior members learn what the CoC is doing by reading it in their papers or watching TV like everybody else, totally helpless to change the CoC course selected by the big money bosses in private sessions at banker's clubs.
Other such lobby groups are the NAM (National Assn of Manufacturers who created the John Birch Society) and NFIB (Natl Federation of Independent Businesses) who are likewise stuffed with helpless, powerless decoys, camouflage and distraction CoC suckers who pay dues to get no meaningful voice while being used in a Corporate Hostile Takeover of America by the Super Rich.
