Yes, it's incredibly depressing. I am half way through Patrick Radden Keefe's book about the Sacklers. Overall messages:
Crime pays
Money matters more than justice
Just keep lying and you'll get through
Say the same lie often enough and it becomes trueWe need to put out the fire, as Neil Oliver puts it. I'm really disturbed by this stuff but I have no idea how to respond.

It got me so depressed I wish I hadn't written it. Dictators do so well. So do crooks. Total corruption in the world was estimated at $3.6 trillion in 2017. Roughly the same as the car industry.
