And how would you fix it from the outside?

Besides, it's only capitalism of you take on investors. You can charge money to solve a problem without summoning the demon.

Then someone willing to "summon the demon" will outgrow you and you'll end up working for them.

You can't fix capitalism period. The issue was never a lack of "good guys" building "meaningful things". The economic pressures always push out the naive in favor of the ruthless. And wealth gets concentrated in fewer and fewer hands until a class of oligarchs emerges that is powerful and psychopathic enough to take over the government and dismantle democracy for personal gains.

Happened in Germany, happening in America right now.
