Because you can stop engaging with a corporation if you believe they violated your trust, with governments youre essentially forced to engage with this institution daily, hence people have higher standards for the government thereby making it harder to trust more In reality it is the opposite. You can vote out bad politicians, but you can't stop a company from owning subsidiaries that give them a monopoly on certain essential industries. But whos inept at stopping monopolies from materializing in the first place? Its the government. Of course corporations will try to monopolize if its in their best interest according to current laws and regulations, our government is supposed to enforce laws so that isnt the case, its supposed to play a balancing of power role in all of this. Which is why we have significantly higher standards for trusting the government, its job is much more critical to daily lives than corporations who we have at least some power in resisting. --- I don't know my gimmick <cite>Kazi1212 posted [p:895219350] in Why do som...
