I'm going to guess you are a libertarian who believes everything can be fixed by the free market and that you consider demands on government (municipal, state, and federal) are analogous to demands on any industry.  That governance is a "market" just like any other.  I should point out how that is ridiculous as the demands made by constituents are far more varied and all encompassing than any other "market" nor does the government have an option to just "close shop" and leave it to the next "business" to come in, especially in a representative government as we enjoy here in the US.

This philosophy does not in any way absolve your ignorance of the real issues or facts involved nor justify claiming others make a "categorical error."
