The people who are willing to do more unethical stuff to make a profit make more of a profit, and become more powerful as a natural consequence, so the problem is with the system that incentives this and brings it to the top
It’s just that the right blames the capitalism on the left and the left blames the capitalism on the right, and the actual liberals end up being barely opposed
I don’t know what the takeaway from that should be, it’s just an observation/simplification that feels generally true
Individuals being bad isn’t really the problem. Within a company, jobs are performed in order to fulfill a fiduciary responsibility. You could argue that this makes people bad in some cases, but it’s not always cut and dry.
but everyone hates the big companies and the rich people
its just that the right has been told that the left are the rich people (and then the left say that the neoliberals are the rich people, etc)
Do you think the problem with big companies and rich people is that individual rich people and the CEOs they elect just happen to be bad people?

Then I am confused why you would disagree with the left, that the political philosophy of capitalism, liberalism, is to blame.
