Lobbying by various industries to curry favor from governments and political leaders is a reality. We, as public, need to keep an keen eye on which company or individual or group is active in lobbying which politician or government department.
If we do not have time or skill for that, we should support activist organizations which do that. OpenSecrets.org is one such organization.
See the lobbying done by various industries in the US. It is no surprise that industries with deficiencies in 'consumer surplus' are lobbying more.
