Yup capitalism is just feudalism with extra steps. Every economic system before had its moment to resolve problems of their time. But it’s time to move on from capitalism. Never before have we had the ability to provide the essentials for every human on earth, and since we do now (yes not over night) we have an obligation to those that came before us to do so. Think about what humanity could accomplish if we stopped needlessly fighting each other for survival. Look at what we’ve accomplished while trying to kill each other. Together we are limitless.
As opposed to Communism, where they extract as much wealth as possible and concentrate it on the 0.1% (the party leadership). Especially when they go to beyond the first generation.
Best case capitalism is not “wealth concentrates on the 1%”. Best case capitalism (which in fact has happened in many places around the world) is “everyone gets richer”.
In a similar way, worst case communism has also happened in many places around the world.
Where does the money come from that makes everyone richer?
You can only have more if somebody else has less (money concentration)
That’s basic economics, isn’t it. Wealth is increased (not just moved) in several ways in a free market system. But not only in a free market system – in communistic systems the same thing happened as well, only in a different framework. And less efficiently in the end.
You’re completely right, but you could replace for profit healthcare with for profit anything and still be right.
Exactly. Capitalism is used to extract as much money as possible and concentrate it on the 1 %

You’re comparing best case capitalism with worst case communism.
When communists concentrate wealth, they are corrupt, the system is not working as intended.
When capitalists concentrate wealth, the system is working as intended.

See why I prefer one over the other?
