It looks less like capitalism and more like socialism for the rich, marketed as free markets.

Print money. Push most of it into cheap credit for giant corporations and asset owners. Let a little trickle into the real economy so ordinary people feel temporary relief. Then let inflation quietly do the dirty work.

The public pays through higher prices, weaker savings, and future debt.

The powerful collect the upside.

That is the game: privatize the profits, socialize the losses, and call it capitalism.

And all of this is legal under the disguise of "protecting the economy for regular folks", and they can keep doing it repeatedly.
