Signe Wilkinson has recently presented a brilliant comic:
Who is to blame? Big government or big banks?
This kind of evil, hidden coalition against the ordinary people was already described by Nobel Laureate Milton Friedman some decades ago:
One of the reasons why I am in favor of less government is because when you have more government, industrialists take it over. And the two together form a coalition against the ordinary worker and the ordinary consumer. I think business is a wonderful institution provided it has to face competition in the marketplace and it can’t get away with something except by producing a better product at a lower cost. And I don’t want the government to step in and help the business community.
