That's the problem with our current socio-economic system, the level of deception near the power centers keeps growing ad-infinitum. It has become a kind of self-perpetuating corruption. Corruption occurs faster than it can be uncovered. It starts in small ways such as sub-optimal hiring practices, then progresses to full-blown nepotism and regulatory capture where there is essentially no accountability. Nobody is held accountable because nobody is willing to hold anybody else accountable because those who try to hold others accountable are replaced faster than they can blow a whistle.
