  rent-seeking is the natural state of the market unless it’s regulated.

  and by market, I mean people.

    most people will always seek to extract as much as they can from something while giving as little back as they can

    This is a fairly new phenomenon during capitalism, though. People lived in community, sharing everything and contributing without measurement of work, for the longest time in human history. It’s only class society that created the breeding ground for such behavior, it’s not human nature, it’s caused by the environment.
