I am not implying any such thing.

What I am implying is that, unfortunately (again), government is the one entity that the common person is given a say in. They aren't a member on any boards, they don't manage philanthropists' thoughts or funds and they own no capital from which to generate their own wealth.

What I am implying is that they can influence the government into addressing their needs, even if superficially.
