thinking about this more, the aspect of capitalism that i believe is what you find inevitable (and i largely agree) is markets, but markets aren't necessarily bad. i'll try to think of some theory incorporating markets for a system better than capitalism. might show you or post here if you're interested

i am . in fact , tag me , because i might miss it .

ok, i believe i have found four main causes of most issues with capitalism, and will try to find working solutions later. let me know if you can think of others that don't fall within these four:
1. capital compounds faster than labor, leading wealth to accumulate at the top and wages not to rise nearly as fast
2. labor markets are not competitive, there are only a few large employers in any field or geographic region and they are often (implicitly) working together to pay workers less than what their labor is worth
3. markets are only successful at pricing what is easy to measure and trade, and generally underprice what is diffuse, delayed, or unowned such as pollution, mental health damage, and community destruction, with companies that ignore these appearing to be more profitable, hurting all people
4. wealth leads to political influence, ensuring that the wealthy stay wealthy and get wealtheir at the expense of everyone else

We won’t necessarily come back to capitalism, prior to capitalism there was feudalism, which failed due to peasants (the vast majority) being forced to labor too much to live, pay high taxes to their lords, and give most of their crop, eventually falling basically everywhere, most notably during the French Revolution, helped significantly by enlightenment ideas. These same issues can be seen with capitalism right now, we just don’t have a realistic concept of a system or the philosophical revolution necessary prior to the actual fighting to change the system
