Has the ever been a time in history with more obvious conflicts of interest and more hideous entanglement between government and industry?

This corruption all stems from a rotten monetary system, though it's hard to know what to replace it with.

It's not the monetary system. It's fucking court cases and legislation that allows politicians to be in bed with corporations and other countries like Israel, Corporate lobbyists writing all the legislation, and 0 ways to hold anyone accountable.

All motivated by.... the quest for more currency.
