modern corporatism is a long way from the rights-respecting free trade that was originally meant by capitalism.
After seeing it cited multiple times in Das Kapital, I’ve recently read “The Condition of the Working Class in England”. Read it for yourself to see what “was originally meant by capitalism”.
Modern-day corporatism is not the worst form of capitalism (for the USians themselves), due to workers organizing and literally fighting for their rights in the past century.
While it’s true that the ideology of liberalism “has its heart in the right place” - by that I mean it does advocate for human rights and development - it also promotes capitalism which is in direct contradiction with those ideals.
