8. the businesses only pay for a small portion of what they recieve in exchange

the power of community and combined effort is what makes society successful.

The government is currently getting blamed for every thing that is wrong in peoples lives. While many of those same people owe their survival to that 'government'.

I don't think it is fair to claim the success as 'self-made' while refusing to bear the responsibility our 'self' when we don't succeed. Doesn't seem very honest or fair imo.

Seems to me that it takes the best of both and then some to succeed or fail, then some being 'luck/fortune/chance'.
