Capitalism isn't what's crashing out the United States, it's these fucking monopolies and mergers.

I've got bad news for you about which form of social organization promotes the growth of monopolies.

There have been a handful of examples of breaking up monopolies but even then the general trend was still increasing consolidation of money and power in fewer and fewer hands.

AT&T was a great example of a step back from the capitalist hellscape we're being pushed into, but there were two steps forward before it and another two after it.
