Totally agree!
Who runs a country? On the face of it a government. In real life it is those with economic clout who have the ability to sway/dictate the economics within a country. Threaten them with *anything* and 600 PR agencies and lobbyists appear in an attempt to sway lawmakers. (What Democracy??) Threaten them further and they move out of that country :-)
