rich people generally have their wealth invested in businesses which I believe are better job creators than government.

A major difference-, the government tends to create jobs where the votes are, in this country. The rich people tend to create jobs where they can get the best return on their investment. In this environment of a Greenspan inspired free falling dollar, the best returns as measured by wealth, not dollars, is overseas.

The more that power and influence is transfered to private corporations, the less accountable it is to the electorate of a democracy. Shareholder elections are a far departure from the one-man one-vote style of decision making.
