Not at all. This sounds like the Elephant and the blind man.
Any system has flaws and be it capitalism or socialism some one or
group will exploit that advantage.

Each of the above has been found guilty of abusing the system in one
way or another and one location or another. In the end, I think
Capitalism will reign in the abusers if enough people speak up.

Be it government, industry, or individual the larger and/or more
powerful the more temptation for abuse of the system.

Currently we are seeing those abuses in both industry and government.
