We need to accept that capitalism seems to be prone to problems relating to regulatory capture and find a solution that resolves these issues. The idea of a perfect and pure "capitalism" is a myth.
- anon49124 8y agoTrue. There's never has, and never will be, any "pure," utopian socialism nor libertarian anarchism, just messy reality with varying levels of gotchas, power concentrations, totalitarianism and corruption. The best people can do is diffuse power and install individuals whom are fair, reasonable and put society / greater good before personal gain... without many of these sorts of people, the crooks win and tear civil society down.
