I'm not pro-capitalism but I'm curious what flavor of replacement you would choose.

I prefer Georgist economic democracy.

All firms are structured as worker coops
Land and natural resources are collectively owned with revenue derive from common ownership going out as a UBI
Common pools of capital collectivized across multiple worker coops through a system of venture communes.
Public goods and mutual aid institutions funded through some variant of quadratic funding

@jlou Can you expand on number 3? Distributing resources and/or capital for investment is the part of economic democracy for which I've never quite seen a good solution.

I've read Schweickart, Dahl, Olin Wright and Hahnel and none of their proposed systems are that great IMHO.
