I don't disagree, but our current socioeconomic/government system leads us to wildly bad situations where we have privatized industries hellbent on extracting every last cent possible from disadvantaged populations (in every sense of the word) and then using that money to further their aims and resource extraction via influencing legislature.

It spreads, it's self perpetuating, it's sick, and it is a disease.

I am in agreement on there being a problem where you can turn money into legislation. That does destabilize the system through regulatory capture. Haven't encountered satisfactory solutions yet.
