You can say something is flawed, but compared to what, and how would you improve it?

I can see that my car is sputtering black smoke when I drive it and correctly identify that it's a problem, but I bring it to an expert for a suggestion to fix it since I don't have much knowledge in this topic either.
If you are against it and you don’t have a solution then you are simply destructive.
1. Regulated Capitalism
2. State Funded Infrastructure.
ad 1) Capitalism isn't a bad system per-se, but needs to be kept in check. States need to ensure that un-competitive behavior is kept in check, that too-large monopolies are reigned in, that consumers are protected, that fair taxes are paid and that private wealth has no undue influence on politics.
ad 2) Structural systems required for a society to function properly have to be, at least partially, state funded, state controlled, or even state owned, thus ensuring the availability and baseline quality of structural services to as many citizens as possible, with regard for revenue generation being a secondary concern.
They also rely heavily on the public being educated enough, interested enough and participatory enough to reflect bad behavior in their voting decisions.
None of this however is an argument for less regulation. It is an argument for education and political participation.
It's not an easy process, it is active work in fact, but it is possible.
This is why we have cronyism in the first place. Who do you think is writing the regulations? Who's funding the think tanks and the "grassroots" organizations? Who's paying for the campaigns?
