    I did not take business classes so limited background but if we assume that the US isn’t going to magically transition away from capitalism, we instead have to find a way to legislate a transition to a more ethical capitalism. That phrase seems to be an oxymoron but for things to not keep getting progressively worse I’m thinking we as a society need to figure out a way to make it happen. Any ideas? You seem to have at least taken a course in the matter.

      What if we transition away from capitalism non-magically?

        No, let’s not. Or at least let’s change it to something better this time, not worse.

          Why don’t you take a list of countries by quality of life from some point in the past decade or two, and see which nations seem to always top it.

          Spoiler: they’re the ones with hybrid economies and highly regulated markets.

            Yes, capitalist free-market countries almost exclusively. That’s the thing I’d rather not have others break.

              Do you not know what a “mixed economy” is? Did you even look at a list? Denmark, Norway, Sweden… You think these are "capitalist free-market countries"and that’s why they top the list?

              The reason those countries are at the top of the list for quality of life is because they have regulations on their markets, and robust social safety nets.

              Maybe actually do a few minutes of honest, open minded research about quality of life.

                Yes, they obviously are capitalist free-market economies.

                Perhaps you should read something like https://www.amazon.com/Basic-Economics-Thomas-Sowell/dp/0465060730 before going on with this line of conversation? It should cover most of what you seem to be lacking.

                  For fuck sake. I will repeat my question:

                  Do you not know what a mixed economy is?

                  Because no, they are not purely “capitalist free market economies.” At all.

                  Perhaps that bit isn’t covered in the one book you’ve read?
