Guys we just have to do better laws to fix the system that lets rich people control what the laws are.
Lile we do for anti trust laws, collusion, labour safety, employment standards etc.
Feudalism is not a perfect system but it’s the only one that has ever worked
There had been alternative, better economic models by this time. Though, I suppose it is fitting that your hypothetical only works if you don’t know all that much.

The ones currently either not functioning or actively getting dismantled?

Yes, its of course going to be harder to build systems of power outside of the capitalist nation state system, as any working model is going to be seen as a threat and attacked.

Are you conflating America with how all capitalism must function? Or how do you see anti trust not functioning in say, the EU?

Theoretical ones. Surely you understand the difference between theory and practice?
Your earlier argument was silly because during feudalism, there were and had been alternative models that produced a similar or better standard of living.
So far, in practice, every application of non capitalism has been a dumpster fire or yielded living standards that are significantly lower than ours.
Don’t be upset because you conflated capitalism with America.
And lol, right winger. Given that for the past decade+ I’ve taken a major paycut to work for a proudly progressive institution because I believe in our values, well, that’s just adorable.
Knowing things doesn’t make someone a right winger (frequently, it’s the opposite!)

Man, smug right wingers are so not worth arguing with.

Left wing is when you’re McCarthy but think the gays are okay.
Childhood is when your understanding of economics is capitalism = America.
Silly lil guy!
I know, right! But as you grow up, hopefully you’ll read more etc and learn.
Good luck!
