But the market will adjust, right? Isn't that the core belief, that the market takes care of everything.

I think the ideology of "market rules" at least semi-works until the market is manipulated, which is "always".

I prefer appointing who manages things meant for public good through voting, it's not perfect but at least it's not ultimate profiteering by default.

Unfortunately, voting is a terrible hiring plan to get competency in a highly complex often opaque environment.

I am currently lost as to what the right structure should be. It certainly is an interesting (and pressing) problem.
