Milton Hershey was apparently pretty awesome to his employees, built an entire town that was locally situated to have public transport, every house had amenities and he built free schools and theaters and more. His water reservoir is even a public garden.
Seems like it didnt last but hey they tried for a while there.
Also i once worked for a company that raised my pay equal for every employee we were down by until we rehired back up. That was awesome.
No, just that the observation that benevolence exists applies as much to worse economic systems.
Your thought may not apply distinctly to capitalism.
Is it possible economic influence from any type of economy would also corrupt susceptible governments?
Have you considered perhaps the problem lies more in the structural types of governments susceptible to influence by special interests that don’t serve the majority?

Benevolent, philanthropic businesses & business magnates are possible as are benevolent kings & dictators.
To not “throw everything away”, that doesn’t suggest how to keep the integrity of government to regulate capitalism or any successful economy.
So you want 1 random person on the internet to solve all the worlds problems for you?
I’ll ruminate on it when im next in the shower and i have again forgotten my Bluetooth speaker.
