Any large organization is prone to corruption and bureaucracy for its own sake. I don't think we should throw out useful tools entirely because some have problems.

Part of the New Deal legislation was the US Government effectively granted corporations monopoly power if they recognized labor unions.

It was FAR from an ideal framework, but it did mean we still had industrial capacity going into WWII.
