Capitalism has spent the last 10 years burning billions on the metaverse and crypto with apparently no repercussions for those involved so I think their credibility as custodians of wealth is questionable.

Capitalism also spent the last 10 years burning billions to create affordable electric cars, reliable regular spaceflight, efficient delivery of everything everywhere, and the (well, probably) greatest technological invention in human history. This is not a complete list.

But yeah. Ugh, capitalism.

You mean the EVs and spaceflights that were funded by government subsidies?
