Even if I could hold my nose and accept extreme, hideous inequality as the price of efficiency, the fact that the deal is a one-way bet for capitalists is just too much. After capitalists invest in "winners" and extract even more capital for themselves, they always use that power to force everyone else to subsidize their bets on "losers". They threaten "systemic failure" and "contagion" if public funds aren't used to bail out their losses. They win when they win, and they win when they lose. And then, decades later, after they've socialized their losses and made us pay for their bad and lazy decisions, we discover that even their winners were losers. Their winners didn't make us healthy, or intelligent, or moral. Their winners didn't house us or feed us or make us safe and secure. We accepted outrageous inequality, we impoverished the public sector, became wage slaves for them, and all we got in return was clicks, and ads, and grift, and memes, and anxiety, and depression, and hate, and conflict and war.
