If you're talking about bailouts, to some extent yes. Several big banks (Citi and BoA come immediately to mind) should have been taken over and sold off/liquidated. If you have other issues, be more specific.

There are many actions by corporations, such as holding municipalities hostage by threatening to leave unless they get concessions.

Not that they shouldn't be free to do these things, but they shouldn't have been given any special protective status.
