It's natural that people are getting frustrated. Current culture values financial rewards and (sometimes undeserved) recognition above all else. This means you can take risky bets that will pay off for long enough to pay you huge bonuses but are eventually certain to produce huge losses (investment banking), outright commit fraud (Enron), get cozy with regulators so no proper engineering is done in connection with something with consequences as devastating as offshore drilling (Gulf oil spill) and now even kickbacks influencing the use of artificial hips and the like, illustrating that engineers and medical doctors are part of the same culture as well:
Still, the level of frustrating is likely to rise further, for it does seem like a (very unfortunate) cultural problem.
