I agree for the most part. Except GOOD Government can "stand in the way of money and power". There are laws against monopolistic behavior, for example. There are laws about clean air in the US used by the EPA. The question is - Do we always have Good Government decisions. in the US it is most of the time, but NOT always. Another example of the importance of voting. We also need a well functioning public education system so that the most number of citizens are able to understand the modern complex problems. Money spent on having a well educated America is money well spent.
