They will try; meanwhile they have clever sloganeers, like Reagan, Trump and our own Galen and Warren Dew who deceive us into thinking that libertarian economics is "individual liberty." They are enslaving us with slogans of freedom. Freedom is Slavery. War is Peace. They don't bother with David's question.
-- that's bcuz David's question requires them to think
It's because David will ignore the answer.
If you're interested, I'm happy to answer it for you.

Big business is less of a threat than big government because corporations aren't, generally, monopolies. That means if I don't like a business I'm dealing with, I can quit doing business with them and go to a competitor instead. The government can come after me with a gun and force me to "do business" with them, a business cannot.
Now, you may point out that big business often has little competition. But, let's face it, that's often because of collusion with government. Big pharma can charge ridiculous prices because the government prohibits reimportation, that would force their prices down through competition. Big agriculture can sell mass produced junk masquerading as food because the government subsidizes them and regulates the market in a way to promote the products with the biggest profit margins at their behest. Big banking survives because of government bailouts.
Get rid of big government, and we could get more reasonable drug prices, real food, and banks which do a good job instead of banks that are just "too big to fail".
