4.2.3 Ideologies Representation
This section is to show the representation of the ideologies in the social issues. It is different from the preeciding section which merely reveal ideology
through the analysis of the linguitic units: transitivity, modality and pronoun. This section is significant because it provides evidence about the way the ideology
works in the reality. The section consists of two subsection such as representation of ideology and the summary.
4.2.3.1 Representation of Anti-Authoritarian Capitalism
In transitivity analysis, the ideology of anti-authoritarian capitalism appears in two prominent processes: material processes in 70 or 63 clauses and
relational processes in 18.88 or 17 clauses. The rest are mental processes in 6.66 or 6 clauses and 4.44 or 4 clauses in verbal processes see appendix 10:
Table 4.10. The frequent occurrence of material processes and relational processes indicate that almost half of the ideology is expressed through actions
carried out by the actor to the goal and through the state of existing. In other words, the capitalism is demonstrated through the actor’s action and the actor’s
identity. PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
In seeking more about the existence of capitalism in Anti-Flag’s song lyrics, it is important to relate the ideology with the factual issues. The implementation
of capitalism is visible through NAFTA. It is a free trade agreement among the North America countries consists of America, Canada and Mexico. The
agreement explodes the boundaries of past trade pacts, which focused narrowly on cutting tariffs and quotas. The cutting tariffs provide minimum tax payment of the
import and exports while cutting quotas reduce limitation on the imports on exports of a country to another country in a certain time. It provides more
liberated prospects for the private ownership companies to run their businesses. The main advantage obtained by the corporate is their power to do regulation
towards the market price. Government has minimum power to control the free trade.
The power-controlled of the private ownership over the government indicates the capitalism. In capitalism, the economy system is controlled by the
private ownership companies. The production of goods and services are lead by the individual person or commercial companies rather than the state or the official
organization. The system puts government as a powerless party. It means government has no ability to do economic intervention to get collective profits.
Government is merely able to enormously do intervention for private concerns. The system definitely put society as the injured party which financially loss. The
occurrence of the topic about governments’ position under the control of private ownership is displayed in the excerpts below.

The Actors, world corporations and of the world represents the private ownership. The Processes, structure, build, and run done by the Actors to the
Goals, policy, corporate politicians and a government government
representation indicates the power of the private ownership over the government or the state.
In excerpt 25, the world which refers to the multinational corporation has power to structure policy in order to strengthen their companies. The common
policy is they are completely free to determine where to invest, what to produce or sell and at which prices to exchanges the goods and the services without any
check or control. It is possibly done as the government got money support from the corporation. In NAFTA, Clinton as the government at the present time let the
other North America countries, Canada and Mexico to do free trade. Because of the policy, a huge numbers of companies move to Mexico as the labor is cheaper
there. The condition creates the job migration which suppresses the American employees’ wages. It clearly shows that government cannot do intervention.
The corporations of the world as the Actor presented in excerpt 26 have power in controlling government - Goal. The slavery is one of the problem arises
