We can both completely completely agree on both points. There are no magic wands that will solve corruption and rent seeking. These are both human flaws. I’m not even against a dose of socially managed resources and services where it makes sense. Cheers.
Cheers! Indeed a bit of planning can work, even in a mostly capitalist system. Take WalMart as an example. It's annual revenues dwarf the GDP of many small countries. And yet it is centrally managed, planned, and rather efficient!
