From a governance point of view it is much, much easier to deal with the biggest 20% of companies than it is to deal with thousand upon thousands of small businesses.
Those companies have lobbyists who will meet with politicians and tell them specifically what they want. Big companies will give assistance to the politician to get what they want, like writing bills for them to propose or donating to their reelection campaign or funding Super PACs.
Big businesses can also offer sweeteners like good jobs to politicians after their political career is over.
These priorities are retarded, because the economy at large is 80% small businesses. Small businesses are the smallest and most flexible, and best able to respond to changing circumstances, like tariffs.
There you go. It isn't necessarily graft and corruption. It could just be laziness and incompetence.
