Still better than the alternatives

Pledging blind allegiance to a single system is stupid

A smarter approach is to cherry pick the best elements from every model and redesign the parts that don't serve us

Not everything should be for profit, if you don't value society and collective welfare, it's meaningless:

You'll be forced to rethink that model anyway once post-scarcity hits

Abundance breaks capitalism, profit cannot thrive when there's plenty for everyone

Capitalism is a dead end, don't get too attached to it, it served us well, time to move on

Doing Capitalism better means preventing market failures and accepting more state intervention... which i suppose the trump / republican government is doing.

Free market Capitalism is dead in the USA, winners are getting picked. Coal over solar. Who knows, perhaps it's right, but I suspect not.
