This is exactly where you’re wrong. The government is full of corruption. They buy large pieces of land and change zoning laws to allow for a big Home Depot style place or an oversized hotel on their land and then they sell it. They shut down any competing construction projects or block use permits.

They obscure any data about public services. Contamination in the water table for example. People who ask too many questions are threatened.

People don’t vote these types in. They are in place through power and connections.

Your view is over simplified and not fully informed by reality of the reality politics.
