You're using the same old, tired, and stupid "government in the pockets
of the evil, bad, greedy corporate executives"
It's the argument of the simple minded.
Get out of that brainwashed mentality you got from the liberal education system, and learn to be an educated thinker instead.
The one sure fact remains that, as government became bigger and more intrusive, the economy has become more problematic and sick and sinking.
Crony capitalism is part of the problem, where government is involved and is trying to determine who the winners and losers are going to be. Again, it's big government intrusion which is not allowing the free market system function to maximum effectiveness.
Over-regulation is one factor which most businesses will cite as one of their biggest problems, and those problems get bigger as government issues more and more regulations.
And, who in their right minds would ever deny that, high taxation is a problem? Only a socialist or a communist would believe that high taxes are good for the country and economy and the people.
