Exactly. That’s the “problem”. It’s a vehicle for greed not efficiency. Why because efficiency is defined by your intended effect. The cost of the world’s resources, employees quality of life are all sacrificed for ever intensifying levels of “profit” efficiency. Which is absorbed by who?
The largest investors in the world for the most part.
It’s a pipeline of inequality. Systems that were intended to be open and give power to the majority circumvented to look fair but actually provision gross inequality.
And what is the culture? You too could be a billionaire if you work hard enough. If you just contribute to the same system that is promoting inequality you too can rise up.
Am I advocating for socialism or communism? No but it’s fair to say that Capitalism has failed as well.
There needs to be something better / newer that isn’t as vulnerable to exploitation.
