RE: The Good Billionaire

When capitalism has been usurped by the elites and designed to facilitate them while turns a blind eye to cruelty in the name of profit, it is no wonder that we turn to any alternative we can find. Socialism has become the grasp for ABC anything but capitalism. Fortunately it appears to be working in small Scandinavian countries, so may well be a better of the two evils. Yet any system is as strong as its weakest people implementing the system. Any system can be corrupted and hijacked by ruthless minded people, even socialism. It is thus the heart and consciousness of every person that need to be improved, not the system of wealth distribution alone.

What a beautiful response @julianhorack, thanks so much :-)
One small correction I would make is this: capitalism was designed from the ground up, from day 1, to facilitate the capitalist class, so there's never been a need to usurp it. The oligarchy is baked-in.
