I’m a fan of capitalism with tight regulations and checks on corruption, personally

The very nature of capitalism facilitates concentrations of power, which will utilize that power to accumulate even more in any conceivable way. The system is fundamentally flawed and needs to be replaced if we care at all for basic human rights and a future for this species.

What is your proposed alternative? I struggle to think of any system that doesn’t inevitably result in concentrations of power
