We often discuss the size of government and the roles we expect the government to play (e.g. protect consumers, workers, and the environment, create opportunities or create a level playing field for businesses, and provide education and infrastructure). Early industrialists like Henry Ford had almost no regulations to worry about because they didn't yet exist (e.g. worker safety, etc.), but the government we have today exists mostly in response to our demands.

Based upon the videos, what does business most need from government and what does government appear to do best? Give a thoughtful answer. That is, please don^'t say government does nothing well unless you don't have access to paved roads, clean water, police and fire departments, and safe food and drugs, etc.
