I'm not talking about the government fixing the problem. And I don't think I misunderstand the problem.
The problem under discussion was the ability of special interests to control the government to block competition. I was illustrating just one subtle political maneuver. Special interests combat each other all the time. It is not inevitable that the same special interest will win every battle, especially when they don't even recognize subtle flanking maneuvers.
It is, of course, unfortunate for the poor farmer upon whose fields the battles are waged.
