Aren’t big corporations usually lobbying the US government? Under this perspective I cannot really trust them more than any government.

Well let me ask you then. What is the difference between companies lobbying for their own interests, often in competition with other corporate interests, and companies taking marching orders from the State?

I think there’s a difference, but if you don’t think so, why?
