>Sir, when you look across the world, do you feel like governments have your best interest at heart?

To some extent yes. In most democratic governments most of the people are just ordinary folk who rather than building lives around power and influence, they wanted a steady job with decent benefits. They have families which are more important to them than their 9-5. They don't want their friends and families with similarly modest lives to get fucked by the rich and powerful right and left.

Granted many->most politicians are narcissistic douchebags. Nearly ALL aspiring CEOs are narcissistic douchebags. Especially in finance. "My greatest dream is to get rich quick while providing minimal value". That's the sociopathic motto of finance.

You prefer less people with zero oversight and far less accountability...

>The beautiful thing is that the market will decide over time.

The libertarian religion isn't beautiful to most of us. It has been resoundingly disproven by history. Regulations are written in blood.
