Again. You think that this is governments "real job". I think that governments real job is to protect the populous from criminal activity (theft, violence and distruction), to adjudicate in civil actions (not fulfilling a contract of some kinds), and the national defense. (which I basically criminal activity by another government. That's pretty much it. Governments job is not to "help". It's very bad at that and should stay away from it. The big evil corporation boogieman that you always harp on CANNOT enforce it's decisions by force (you can always choose not to do business with them), UNLESS it has the complicity of a government, which they all do. If governments did not have any power over the market, then corporate lobbies would not be able to utilize them to create the corporate cronyism that you so rightly fear. The present system of huge corps and government hand in hand has nothing to do with a proper free market and the more you have government intervention in the name of "fixing" the problem of corporate cronyism, the worse it will become IMHO
