I think the government protects the corporations more often than plain citizens. I see it everyday when a new protectionist law is passed. Corporations have an interest to listen to their employee's needs (Producers) and the Consumers since they can easily take their money someplace else.

Its funny BP actually has their liablity insurance through the British government. The citizens pick up the tab whenever they mess up. We also had a cap on the liablity that BP could pay out. There was less downward pressure from the higher ups for these reasons alone.

If anything its governemnts fault for limiting the amount of liablity BP has to pay. That would never happen in the private sector.

Government jobs do not create Prosperity in a Country.
Government jobs syphon money away from the private sector where prosperity/growth/innovation comes from.

Corporate waste only exists because they pushed protectionist laws through our government. They can be lax with their spending and waste since they have less competition to deal with.
