What is the Biggest Problem for Society: Government or Business?

There’s no doubt in my mind that the government is the biggest problem with our society.

Except for those many times when unregulated corporations are the biggest problem with our society. Here is Exhibit A these days, Boeing’s conduct regarding the 737 Max, resulting in 346 deaths. . Tomorrow it will be some more gross misconduct or price gouging by Big Pharma, or Wall Street banks fleecing the taxpayers.

Rather than pushing and pulling on this false dichotomy, can we agree on this compromise: Unchecked power operating outside of meaningful sunshine is the biggest problem with our society?
