This is actually an older news story, and it does appear as though she recovered from this before her death.

That is where I think a lot of people get it wrong…I am describing centralization and it takes many forms across many political and economic systems.

You said I just described capitalism and I agree, but really am describing centralization of which capitalism is just only one of many centralized systems that lead to poor outcomes for society if not managed carefully. I see a lot of people blaming capitalism and point to other centralized systems as the solution when they are really just more of the same. People are greedy.
