I think solving problems like corruption takes more than one thing, so I think false dichotomies are unhelpful.

  What you call "corruption" is fundamental capitalism. In other words, there has never been and can never be a capitalist society without it. Thinking otherwise is capitalist utopianism. "The government" (or state) is part of capitalism. In fact, it is a critical component. There could be no capitalism without a state to enforce it. Libertarianism is not a coherent ideology; it is a disease of the intellect.

    I meant that as corruption from the perspective of the governmental system. Which either you knew perfectly well or we're talking past one another here, so either way I think I'm done.
