It may not be perfect but it's actually hard to put private companies to account. Just look at the cock up over the horse meat found in Tesco's burgers recently or even the tax avoidance from companies like amazon and Starbucks.

Unfortunately, modern governments aren't any better, with constant corruption and a lack of accountability. Just look at the expenses scandal of 2009, it proves it all. Despite that, government should have some control of some services like Healthcare, Education, Energy and Infrastructure which compete with private alternatives. If anything, politicians are corrupt because too much money is involved and get away with not doing what is best for their voters. If enough people are unhappy with there MP, they should at least have the opportunity to vote them out.

The lack of education on these issues and public awareness only makes the situation worse. As people, tend to vote for the same party all their lives regardless of what happens. How can you expect real change that way?
You have some good points though
