Their point still stands.

Not all companies do illegal things.

IMO it’s also a distraction to blame it on “capitalism” or some “larger trend” rather than just pointing directly at the company and people responsible.

“The system is broken” line hasn’t worked for years now. Maybe if we stop blaming the system and start blaming the people?

The Koch brothers stopped breaking the law because it was too expensive. Instead they started lobbying to get the laws changed. This is where the idea that the system is rotten comes from.

No one claimed all companies do illegal things.
