It's working great you're just a spoiled bitch. Capitalism has taken us from mud huts to our poor having iPhones with zero chance of starvation. Keep complaining.

No that was poor, hard working immigrants that you're thinking of. Specifically, the Irish, Chinese, and Dutch.
Having money doesn't make the world better. Doing work does.

....and what does capitalism promote throughout society...for people to work so we can advance. And I dont think tech companies and biotechs, etc, came from poor hard working immigrants. It came from determined nerds that were motivted and enabled by capitalism.
