Lobbying. Even though lobbying is not the only factor explaining why government made such policies, it is an important factor that should not be dismissed.
And since corporations have much more resources than NGOs and such to do lobbying, it is fair to put part of the blame on them for pushing policies that make them more powerful.
- xigma 8y agoEverybody is lobbying for their interest, not just corporations. Corporations may finance a party, but they're not casting the votes. There's an endless number of special interest groups, large and small, corporate or public. If a government is so vulnerable to lobbying, that's still a government failure, it's not the failure of those trying to defend their interest.
