All I know for a fact is: I've seen the govt. take DOWN some big businesses when it wanted to. And only the govt. can make laws that regulate or don't regulate big business.
I vote for govt. officials. Not big business managers.

So in my OPINION, it's the crooks in Washington (and local govts) who are to blame.

The "big business" guys are only doing what they should be doing: trying to gain a competitive edge.

That is NOT what our govt. officials are supposed to be doing. But yet, there they are with their greasy hands out to collect as much money as they can.

Do I think "big business" is the real power? Nope. But again, that's just my opinion.
I base it on the fact that so many people spend tens of millions of dollars to get elected to Congress...which pays $174,000 a year.

Think about that.
