Actually, it does.  Again, read Thomas Sowell.

Allowing people with money to do as they like "doesn't work" only to the
"intellectuals" who don't have money and lack the ability to acquire money.

Now, I do have to agree with this.  Our society tends to take things to
extremes without thinking.

If something is "good", then doing more of it must be better.  Similarly, if
doing something in excess is bad, then doing none of it must be best.

But that's not the case for most things.  ex: salt.  Too much salt is bad for
you, but salt is a necessary thing.  Yet people think that they should
completely eliminate it.

The problem with this idea and intervening in the economy is that to allow the
gov't ANY extra power has shown that the gov't will only take more over time.

The scamdemic has had more and more people starting to question the reach of
gov't into our lives today.

Why do we need to ask the gov't's permission to run a business?
Why does the gov't get to set rules about how someone does their job?

The ignorant Left want to keep us "safe" but that's proven to be a smoke
screen.  (Hint: restaurants who's customers get food poisoning and builders who
make houses that fall down don't stay in business very long.)

If you think that Capitalism is an "extreme, totaltarian idea" then you have
been brainwashed.
