The only reason government creates problems is because we in the U.S. have allowed the super rich to control the government and shape all the rules and regs to favor the interests of large corporations and very rich people.

No, a highly intellectual guy is giving you an opportunity to clarify a vague/meaningless statement.

The next guy understood it pretty well. It stands as a basic truth, so deal with it.

That seems to be a polemic, and totally unsupported theory. If it were really true, no wealthy person would ever lose money, which is clearly not the case.

To be fair, it's not just the US where that is a problem.

To be fair again, the problem is much, much worse in the US than in the rest of the developed world.
