Government Is Too Big
Corporations Are Too Big

The Occupy Wall Street movement is correct in saying that corporations receive special treatment. The corporations give millions of dollars to politicians who in return pass laws and regulations that favor the rich.
More regulations mean more government and so the Tea Party movement is also correct. Half of government needs to be cut just to keep spending and revenues equal.
Small and medium sized businesses are hurt again by the regulations which are written by, and for the big guys. I see this every day in my own business.
There is no problem with "capitalism" when there is a level playing field. "Too Big To Fail" is actually a result of "corporatism." Capitalism without failure is like religion without hell.
