Aviation is a "high profile" industry, imagine what it would be like for industries out of the spotlight. We also have two competent individuals with their own lives on the line & the authority to act as gatekeepers, and generally to prevent/repair reckless organizational behavior from having fatal consequences.
Most, if not all industries have captured their regulators & legislators. We really have entered the law of the jungle where "might is right". Aviation is just a visible symptom (to us) of a much larger problem.
God help anyone that ends up on the wrong side of a ANY industry behemoth, you are at their mercy.
