Capitalism was a failed experiment that should have ended in the 1920s but it served certain people well to keep it going, so they popped it up, rather than letting it die. So now we have this stupid hybrid system where it’s capitalism, but only until capitalism fails. Then suddenly it’s socialism time, but only for businesses, until they feel like they can cope again.

Exactly. It’s not capitalism, it’s crony capitalism that sucks. Big business and government in cooperation is bad for us all. Truly free markets will still produce dickhead corporations, but competition allows good businesses to compete and give consumers better options.
