Politics
Any supervising institution but especially: the justice system and the military
The military industrial complex.
I mean thats going to be politician but unfortunately thats not really supposed to be a profession but it is.
Banks. Pharmaceuticals. Politicians. Stock traders. Food production. Energy. Airlines. Military. I guess these arenβt professions as much as theyβre industries, so I guess CEO/Corporate members of these industries?
Any regulator specifically exists to counter these forces, so any regulatory capture is the most devastating to society as it opens entire industries to corruption. For some reason capitalists think foxes know the most about chickens, so surely they should be in charge of the henhouse.
Drugs/medicine
All of them, as long as we have capitalism
Architects and structural engineers, airplane manufacturers, etc. Any situation where cheaping out on parts means the death of innocents
video game developer
almost any kind of software developer.
