You or someone pay to companies with your money for the value they provide. However companies dont pay for the services goverment give them, like the security of police enforcement and the roads and public transport for their workers to come to work, or the justice system to ensure their rights are protected. In fact, without the goverment the business probably couldnt even be a ble to operate.

- splintercell 5y ago> the justice system to ensure their rights are protected The only way a corporation can protect its property from the whims of the majority is with the help of lobbyist. In fact, US is one of the few countries where the corporations are allowed to formally influence the politicians (and just see how much people who just want to take it all from them in the name of 'fair share' hate this). In other countries, this system is informal, so in Mexico, the corporations simply have to influence the politicians in an opaque way.
