I find it odd that Capitalism lauds itself as the best system, but in the end, what we have, always, is a few astoundingly greedy power hungry emotionally damaged running the world, and the rest, at the bottom of the pyramid, unable to use democracy to right the ship because American democracy is bought and sold to the super rich like Trump and Musk.
