Capitalism violently crashes once every few years and gets bailed out by daddy govt. Without this constant maintenance we'd def not still be around. This pandemic would've made 50%+ of people homeless overnight under capitalism if it weren't for the brrrr machine. Or caused no shut down and just killed way more people leading to a self shutdown.

"We handle fluctuations in the business cycle really well" is not the indictment of capitalism you think it is. Especially compared to collectivist systems that offer nothing but continuous misery even in the "good" times.

This is the first economic contraction we've had in 10+ years btw and it's due to a pandemic so "violently crashes every few years" might be a little dramatic.
