The first scenario is capitalism -The second is sheep like masses (who have no one to blame but themselves) not using good judgement and opportunist businessmen taking advantage.
The difference between capitalism and totalitarianism is that in capitalism, you can choose to "follow the herd" or not. In Totalitarianism, the opportunists have guns.
