Most of those who want to see a smaller government seem to have no problem with the size of corporations, even though, while they may have a say in government, they will have, for all intents and purposes, absolutely no say in corporations. If a big corporation makes money on a high risk gamble, the corporation keeps the profit; if a big corporation takes a huge hit, the taxpayers foot the bill, and since big corporations frequently pay little or nothing in the way of taxes, they don't even contribute to the funds which cover their losses.
It seems, to me, that protests might better be directed at the increasing size and power of corporations, that allows them to suborn the Government, anyway, than to the size of that government.
