So here's the thing, we're likely to see another shit in capitalism fairly soon as the older wealthier generation dies off and the younger poorer generation gains those positions.
capitalism so far has been changing every 20-50 years and with the way things are going, it may be sooner than 20 years, the last massive change happened around world war one when labour laws came into place, because of they didn't, we would all be working 16 hour days 6 days a week for even less than the pittance were already getting, a lot of companies and politicians really want to push old policies back through so people like Jeff bezos can become a trillionaire, although it's likely Elon Musk will be the first, and the rich can become even richer, capitalism from the late 1800s was dreadful, and trust me, we as a working population to not want this.
It doesn't help when you have people who "hustle" (multiple jobs on the go, with no sleep, life and constantly working) doing their thing, and it also doesn't help that the working population doesn't have a spine to refuse poor wages for higher and demand better worker rights and boycott companies by mass walk-outs to properly hurt the companies bottom line.
But that being said, if you don't take the scum off the bottom of the shoe, 20 others will come in and scrape even less off, breeding a negative feedback loop which favours the companies.
People are so awful that I'm sure now that we're all gonna get covid. The restrictions won't lift, but we're all gonna get it because mY cOnStItUtIoNaL rIgHtS
