> it’s private sector first coming to utilize public sector for protections. So I’d say it’s pretty capitalist initially, and then a failing of government second.
I’d say its just capitalist, period. The owners of capital, collectively and individually, using government as a vehicle to advance their interest is the whole origin and nature of capitalism.
“free markets”, etc., are post hoc idealistic rationalizations that were created to defend those interests by selling people on capitalism well after it existed, and do not reflect the reality of capitalism.
