>For this rich mercantile elite, yes, the anglo system is superior, which is why its ideals have now spread across the entire world (even in China there is now an elite that dresses in suits and engages in trade unencumbered by rules and regulations that protect the millions that are pressed into working in their factories under appalling conditions).
>For the vast majority of people, however, the system is a disaster.
The common people living in the Anglosphere are much better off than those where the institutions that protect property rights didn't exist.
I am not originally from an Anglosphere country and yet believe that the econo-political structure that they were first to successfully implement had tremendous advantages over anything before or since.
