You are forgetting all the help (monetary & regulatory) that our big bad government provides/provided for businesses (individuals also) . Subsidies Tax breaks Funds for R&D..going way back - the railroad would not have even been built without government funding .. PLUS .. the west would still be the Indians land and the Mexicans land .. Our government promised and gave free land to anyone who would "head west" ..to grab and settle the territories ..
You truly need to check out Somalia where there is no government and there you will find your 'PURE capitalism system' at work ..
now they have 'true capitalism' .. we have NEVER had it .
How familiar are you with Holland? Spain? Rome? Greece? Persia? The various Chinese dynasties? (the latest iteration of which holds a fairly sizable mortgage on this place)
How did you get to us being the most successful system in history.. y'know as opposed to just being the latest in a long line?
