    Capitalism is the greatest generator of wealth ever created

    I feel like when making that “calculation”, you’ve forgotten to figure in the complete and utter destruction of the biosphere, the impending losses due to climate change, the cost in human lives and well-being and dignity of enslavement, exploitation, and so on.

      I’m not, though.

      Your conflating an economic system with a lack of regulation. There’s no reason capitalism can’t be regulated properly. The New Deal showed us that it has been in the past.
