    “corrupt industry” is a bit redundant, isn’t it?

    Show me an industry that isn’t built, from foundation to the tip of the pyramid, out of blocks of condensed corruption. Show me one that has not perpetrated unimaginable horrors on uncountable numbers of humans for generations.

      Hmmmm, maybe like the medical device startup industry?

      I did electronics prototyping for a number of years with a lot of medical device startups and pretty most of them genuinely just wanted to help peoples’ quality of life.

        That’s not really an industry though. Industry is established. A startup is by definition not that. Start ups very quickly follow in their parents footsteps or are bought out.
