I disagree. I think government authority is the sole foundation upon which all lobbying is built.

If the government has no authority over something, there is no value in lobbying the government for help with that something.

Example: The government has subsidizes and regulates farming. Therefore there is a powerful incentive for agricultural interests to buy special treatment. Add ethanol considerations, and you have oil interests at work too.
