Yes in the sense that capitalism isn't and will never be a "fair" system as anyone who participates in it may perceive it. There's a point where any economic system can erode its political cousin whether that be capitalism, socialism, or communism. To me, all you're saying is what others before you have said: we have too much weight in the capitalism category these days. I think most people probably agree with that.
