^ Corporations have plenty of real world power. When you "remove" things from govenmental control, private concerns will of course snap them up.  Boycotting a company doesn't always mean it can't hurt you. 

In this case however, you’re arguing the extreme. With government, I am arguing the norm.

I will take the odds that corporations care about my money over governments caring about my feelings, every time.

As far as scaling and government, it’s not really a matter of personnel, as much as it is a matter of authority. People are already in place to run things more localized, just thanks to the problem (people want more power), the ability has been taken away from them.
