What true capitalism is is creative destruction. When someone builds a better mousetrap, the old mousetrap company innovates or it goes out of business. The role of government is to be the referee to make sure that process operates fairly - what if the old mousetrap company was allowed to steal the idea and shoot the owner of the new company? That's precisely what is being allowed to happen today which is not capitalism.
If you don't have incentive, you don't have innovation. Without innovation, we have a problem.
I very much agree with what you're saying. The only thing is that that's the way things play out in theory. Innovation happens much faster when an idea builds on top of other, older ones. The problem with so much regulation is that if a new idea looks even slightly like that of an older model, that person gets sued because of so-called copyright infringement. It all goes back to money. If someone were to build on top of the older model, then that person would have to dole out a percentage to the older company. That costs too much money to the newer person, and makes him/her decide to give up on the innovative product or service. That's why we have Creative Commons licenses. I believe that as this planet goes more and more into 4D positive, you'll see an explosion in the use of these licenses.
From a spiritual perspective, I believe that this STS system (the one that I've described just now) is one that has been mapped out by higher density STS entities. It flows too smoothly the negative way to have just happened that way.
