Corporatism- Another way to view them is as special interest groups

I'm familiar with this concept.

All Auto Workers would belong to a single union, and elect a representative (or have one appointed)

Does 1 manufacturer, Toyota, operate as a nationwide monopoly or does it compete/ collaborate against/ with others, Honda, Suzuki, in the market place? Are cars imported and exported in a free or regulated market? Is Toyota state owned? How are factions/ internal disputes handled within the union?

If there are 1 million auto workers and 100,000 rail workers are they represented differently? Does the auto union have a louder voice or more voting rights then rail?

Do consumers have "corporations"? How are they formed? How do they function? What if a special interest group is overlooked by the state because it is considered to be marginal or inconsequential? Can I lobby or petition the state? I don't have my own representative to contact and air grievances to. Or can I ask my housing rep be able to raise "off topic" issues?

Homosexuals are a special interest group in liberal democracies. I'd imagine homosexuality is viewed negatively by many fascist states due to the lack of reproduction/ nuclear family. If the state is unwilling to provide "sexuality reps" what ability would they have to represent themselves?
