Uhh... no? Not in the traditional sense of the word, no. It's how we've decided to architect our system.
"Corruption" in this context typically refers to an element of dishonesty or theft and so on.
If you mean "corrupt" in the ethical sense, then sure, kind of?
- FirmwareBurner 1y agoSo the US taxpayers voluntarily asked their government to give them expensive and shitty health insurance instead of healthcare?
- sorcerer-mar 1y agoThe US government doesn’t run the healthcare system, and yes voters consistently choose to keep it this way.
- FirmwareBurner 1y agoSo ... corruption.
- sorcerer-mar 1y agoNo. How is "voters choose to have a system that optimizes for profit" an example of "corruption?" Please explain your logic step by step.
- FirmwareBurner 1y agoGovernment chose the system, not the voters. And the government chose the system that benefits the private sector not the population because of corruption(call it lobbying if that makes it easier for you) from the private sector. I've never heard Americans say "I want a system that costs me a lot, makes other people rich and give me northing in return". Explain how that isn't corruption.
