But the amazing thing was they seldom did. In fact, their husbands and boyfriends would actually come to pick them up when they were well enough to be released. The psychologists told me not to be concerned because they were in codependent relationships. Codependency implies some degree of pathology. Such is the codependent relationship of government and business.
Business maintains it is the engine that drives economies and countries.
To a great extent this is true. When we look at countries that become business unfriendly, such as communist or socialized nations, we see a weaker commercial infrastructure. When governments put too many restrictions on business they kill it. Business looks at government and complains government plays by different rules. Government is less accountable than business.
