It may not be a profit motive but governments' motives are sporadically focused on the public welfare at best.

It comes down to money in politics, where said money is a necessity to maintain an agent position within the system. This motive alone is enough to turn protagonist agents within the system into antagonist agents against the system.
I'd rather we make the government more focused and responsibilities more specific. We need to remove the incentives for throwing money into politics rather than try to play corruption whack-a-mole.
