The trick is to have neither unregulated free market capitalism nor communism, but instead a liberal democracy in which the government regulates and subsidizes the industry. You know, like the system western nations already have. Wild outlandish concept, I know. Not jumping to one political extreme or the other is a mind-blowing proposition for you I'm sure.
