I'm trying to think of a real world example of government breeding growth that's gone wrong, but I can't think of any.

There's plenty of examples of breeding control that have gone horrific of course. I just can't think of the opposite example.

For sure. Somehow Nestle still pisses me off more though. Corporations that get too powerful are the real danger to us today in my opinion. But they draw a lot of parallels with the old corrupt communist regimes.
