    All types of government will have some form of corruption, but I’m not sure how a “free market” ran by people who follow the philosophy that companies only have the responsibility to answer to shareholders will generate wealth for “many.” Unless you’re advocating for trickle down pissonomics?

      A “free market” is a utopian ideal that cannot exist in the real world anyway

      A singular goal gives them focus, and a simple system is ideally more efficient than a complex system. It’s the job of the society to enforce upon them a framework where that focus can be applied in a way that doesn’t cause negative value.
