But even the good wizards think they can do what they want to the muggles.

But we are told that the good wizards who do this aren't doing the right thing. When Hermione jinxes her parents, Harry and Ron are unnerved. When Fred and George give Dudley the cursed candy, Arthur screams at them about how wrong that was. Dumbledore's past views of how wizards should control the muggles for their own good almost ruins his reputation. Even doing memory charms on muggles is often seen as something very unpleasant and unsavoury. So while wizards see nothing wrong with feeling superior over muggles, doing whatever they want to them is clearly a wizarding taboo.

Wizards run the UK. Only the very highest members of the government know. It is not a taboo.

Yes, they run the UK, but they're not magicking the Prime Minister to do everything they want. in the sixth book, Fudge isn't mind-controlling him, just being condescending. If he were to cast an imperius curse to get the Prime Minister to do whatever he wants, that'd be a taboo. Anyway, if I'm remembering things wrong, feel free to correct me.
