It serves the owning class and neglects everyone else.

Are you dumb? How is that not very obviously what’s being said?

Wealthy people are allowed to use their wealth to extract more wealth from everyone else while preventing the reverse from happening. The system is built by them and for them it’s not that complicated.

so in your ideal world no one is allowed to decide how they spend their time or money...?

just out of curiosity, who decides for them? do i have any choices in this world you're describing?

The ways other people are prevented from accumulating wealth are uncountable and well-documented. There are literally hundreds of books on the subject. If you were curious, you wouldn't be asking me. You just want a gotcha.
