It's not capitalism, the reason we ended up with massive accumulation of wealth (which changed shape and form across time - Rockefeller is not Zuckerberg) is because of government corruption, intervention and monopoly creation.
New governments don't do anything but waste public money and create regulations which entrench the current lobbyists as the de-facto standard and prevent new competition from popping up.
