Isn't this exactly how YC network effects work? Is that why the parent is downvoted?

  It's how modern capitalism works, yes, and at least some of the downvotes are surely from freemarketeers who truly believe all the stuff described in the GP is just a perfectly fine, fair state of affairs.

    Can we all agree that if we’re gonna claim that real socialism(tm) has never been tried that real capitalism has similarly never been tried. The current system is very much a hybrid socialist/capitalist approach and attempting to attribute all the ills of society to capitalism is simply dishonest.
