While there is evidence to support claims that most leaders most political parties in all countries are "controlled" (heavily influenced is probably a better word) by special interest groups, I don't believe there is a centralized conspiracy against the public because you would probably see better government if there was. One of the core problems with (pretty much) every leader around the world is that they’re rudderless, and are jumping from issue to issue (seemingly) at random and making changes which may counteract decisions they have made recently; as an example, the government could introduce legislation to give incentives to manufacturers to build factories in a country, then follow it up with legislation strengthening unions, and then legislation which taxes energy use.
