The real problem is people. It doesn’t matter which system you live under greedy shitty people will find every loophole they can to increase their own wealth especially if the consequences aren’t seen or felt. It’s not being evil it’s just how people are.

if your instinct is to blame human nature, you are wrong. i mean, not wrong that human nature is flawed, but wrong in that you are effectively arguing there can never be a solution to anything.
solving problems requires tackling the human element. and often times means holding people accountable.

I didn’t mean to imply that there can’t be solutions, only that there can’t be solutions that don’t account for most people being selfish assholes.
