There's a bizarre trend I have seen in the past decades where "The Government" is being portrayed as the enemy — not as the construct we have created to represent the wishes and needs of the people and society. Corporations are portrayed as our saviors at best — or at worst, excused for doing whatever they need to to make their shareholders a return on their investments.
"not as the construct we have created to represent the wishes and needs of the people and society."
Does the government actually do that?
It should. And we should fix that.
I am sure that corporations are not much interested in serving the public good however.
