The answer is definitely true. People tend to dislike the idea of lobbyists, because lobbyists often represent large, wealthy interests (like big corporations and industries) by spending huge amounts of money to persuade the government to pass legislation that is favorable to their interests. This makes it much harder for little guys (like small businesses) to get the attention of government, since non-wealthy people don't have the resources to lobby the government in the same way.
