Capitalism Doesn't Work

and it won’t

Summary: The machine is broken. Capitalism, designed for a world of scarcity, runs on antique logic in a time of radical surplus. This is not conspiracy. It is obsolescence.

The United States wastes 30-40 percent of its food supply to maintain price signals. Meanwhile, children go hungry. Managers destroy edible goods; the system panics at abundance and calls the destruction "loss prevention." Farmers receive billions not to grow food on 25 million acres. We have 15 million empty housing units and half a million homeless. The failure is artificial.

Capitalism cannot survive surplus. It creates fake scarcity through digital licenses and legal chains. It is not evil. It is an outdated tool, and obsolete systems do not retire. They thrash. They kill until replaced.
