As I’ve gotten older, I find the capitalist/corporatist vs. collectivism argument incredibly tired. We now have 100 years of very well documented history that clearly shows regardless of which system is in place, a group of ruling elite entrench themselves and orient the system to benefit their circle. Doesn’t matter if the person doing it is a CEO or a Communist party official.
Btw, if a country goes socialist the same sociopaths that would be CEOs would just worm their way up the government ladder and find a way to be in charge.
We should be looking at systems that curb the power of elites in both government and business.
Yes there is merit is discussing reforms, and capitalism vs. socialism, but until we figure out how to break the elite without just creating a new class of elites, the argument divides us and helps them.
