Regardless of whether it's a legal or criminalized practice, which professions are particularly prone to the influence of money in ways that are considered the most detrimental to society?
Banks. Pharmaceuticals. Politicians. Stock traders. Food production. Energy. Airlines. Military. I guess these aren’t professions as much as they’re industries, so I guess CEO/Corporate members of these industries?
Any regulator specifically exists to counter these forces, so any regulatory capture is the most devastating to society as it opens entire industries to corruption. For some reason capitalists think foxes know the most about chickens, so surely they should be in charge of the henhouse.
