We're not living in capitalism, we're living in the mutant child version of it, corpo-kleptocracy.

No. This is exactly what capitalism does. Make no excuse for it.

There is no "better" capitalism. The whole point of capitalism is unlimited, unchecked growth. Even if you contain it for a time and it's not so bad, it will work slowly (at first) to erode all safeguards. It will always become this.

I agree with you! We're living in the end results of it. A socialist system works better. It works for the Scandinavians.
