Yes to both. However, the poor polices may be inherent in advanced stages of capitalism. I encourage you to look at my old presentation on “The Cadence of Finance” available here: https://efficientminds.wordpress.com/education/learning-modules/the-cadence-of-finance/ That presentation gives a number of examples of the socioeconomic climate that has fueled the widening wealth gap.
