What doesn't big government do?

Big Government doesn't create jobs, it creates red tape. Anytime a private company is hired by the government, they must rewrite their rules and SOP raising the cost of business by far more than normal to fit the government's rules. Big Government won't fix the housing crisis, it caused it. If the government hadn't pressured and forced banks to give home loans to morons who couldn't repay them, this never would have happened. Big Government can't make a business give customers what they want. Customers do that by refusing to purchase what they don't want. Businesses that fail to serve their customers lose them and get replaced with businesses who know how supply and demand works. Big Government doesn't care about the people, it cares about keeping itself in power. If it cared about the people our president would have spoken seriously about the tea party goers and their concerns. Instead, he did nothing more than repeat the same garbage we've heard the last few months with nothing new about what will be done to better our situation. He threw a few bones to the crowd by talking about how he wanted to help people who are struggling. The only "help" I see from him is helping himself to GM, Chrysler, Citibank, and any other corporation he feels the government can absorb. Fill me in on the things I left out. What else doesn't big government do?
