Are you seriously saying that identifying the gap between how things work and how things should work is useless? The only domain in which that is true is the laws of physics. In other domains, the way things work can be changed.

And, indeed, other societies have chosen to regulate companies differently and don't have companies doing this sort of thing nearly as much.
