I tend to think all Industries are corrupt, but everyone thinks their own is the worst. My day to day interactions with the health industry seems normal, like all good people. My doctor seems normal, my neighbors seem normal. But then when I see the non-stop big pharma ad-campaigns, then it looks shady.
Guess it comes down to the definition of 'corruption', and what level we are talking about. I think when most people say their industry is corrupt, we are talking about general Greed, and that isn't really corruption, it is just capitalism. And it gets shady on a sliding scale with the amount of money involved.
- grishka 3y agoI wouldn't call it "corrupt", but it amazes me how often you would ask a doctor something seemingly trivial and they're like "oh we don't know why this happens". It must be one of the few industries where it's impossible to have a complete understanding of the subject, no matter how hard you try.
