Who are the 3 people downvoting? This is very true and I don’t see it ever changing as long as humans are humans. Pretty much all religions say treat each other nicely and don’t kill. But then why are there war profiteering companies around?
So your solution is to hand everything over to the government and allow them to control the labor, the profit, and the wealth of over 340 million people without first having any understanding whatsoever about how a system such as that would be stressed under the weight of such a population?
I’ll add that there exists no government on the planet that could be trusted to do something like that without exploiting the populace- as none have done so to date.
Your condescending tone shows you already know it all and have your mind made up so I don’t really see where this debate can go anymore that is constructive. Take that how you will, I don’t really care
There are no ethics in capitalism
Any structure which has hierarchy in it with control structures away from people suffers from the same issue. People must own things.

And how would you fix it?
Stop de-regulating everything. Guardrails were put there for a reason.
I agree. That’s a good start at least.
Planned economy
Elaborate with an example of how exactly that would work for a country of 340 million people.
What difference would population make? Decentralization can exist in a planned economy to adapt to locales

You clearly haven’t thought this through.

Theirs is no condescension in my tone because there Is no “tone” in written word.
I simply asked you a question you refused to answer, and then I refuted your reasoning for not answering.
And it’s not a debate unless you participate.
Next time, answer a question when asked. Take it as a prompt for you to sell your idea on someone who is looking to you for an answer.

Seems to be working fora country of over a billion, just sayin’
Ah yes having to lick the boot of an autocrat with no freedom to dissent. That sure sounds like its working to me.
So your suggestion is to turn America into Russia/China?
Is that not what is happening right now?
Yeah but they’re only taking the bad parts
