The demand for yes-men stays huge. A manager comes, he wants yes-men. Things fail. Someone gets blamed and removed, maybe the manager himself. The circus continues. I wonder why capitalism doesn't remove this obvious inefficiency, but rather seems to promote it.

I wouldn’t be surprised if having bridges with 90 degrees angles is often better than having no bridges.

Government bureaucracies are rather far from "capitalism".

  • Yes but this problem exists in capitalism too. Name one big company that doesn't suffer from this issue.

    • Fair, capitalism does in fact suffer from this. But so does every bureaucracy. For that matter, so did monarchy. So it seems to me to be a bit to single out capitalism.
