What’s not to like about capitalism? I mean, sure, it only provides significant public benefit within a delicately balanced state of equilibrium that can only be maintained by a strong, honest, business-independent government. And sure, it’s a clear public disaster for services where the cost of a even single failure is catastrophic, like healthcare, police, prisons, fire departments, armies, nuclear power, and so on. And sure, there are plenty of wealthy individuals who will corrupt its meaning to the point where the word “capitalism” is almost indistinguishable from “divinely ordained feudal monarchy.”
But what’s not to like?
