    but it has seemed to work a bit better than other systems actually tried regardless.

    Bruh what? Tell that to the millions of homeless and sick people dying from preventable diseases every year, suffering from the constant economic crises that happen every 5-7 years, to the people where privitization has destroyed any semblance of function in public services.

      Since when did “better” mean “perfect?” What other economic systems have been tried that don’t have not only the same, but also worse issues? Where is this golden economic utopia you seem to think exists in the world? Because even the supposedly communist countries benefit from capitalistic economies.

      Just as the quote before about democracy being the worst form of government except for all others; democracy isn’t perfect, but it sure beats the fuck out of monarchies, empires, true republics, and all the other forms of government that exclude the voice of the common person.
